A member asked:
Can scar tissue after ankle debridement & modified brostrom create a popping noise when moving the ankle a certain way? does this noise ever go away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Scar tissue does not give rise to popping sound. Normal soft tissue may. Dont worry if it is only popping sound. But if you develop pain or swelling ot the area become red, consult your doctor.
