A member asked:

What does lateral tamar dome with diagnostic considerations including osteochondral injury versus degenerative change?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sprain: This is usually after an ankle sprain . This means there is damage to the cartilage off the talus which is the bone that moves under the hinge of the ankle. This can be fraying (degenerative) or a dent (traumatic). See a foot and ankle specialist to discuss treatment options .
