Dr. Chien Speaks to fox news digital about trevor lawrence’s Injury and high ankle sprains
Dr. Bonnie Chien, an orthopedic surgeon specializing in operative and non-operative treatment of foot and ankle conditions at New York-Presbyterian/Columbia University, spoke to Fox News Digital about high ankle sprains and what a typical recovery for those injuries could look like.
“Sometimes people feel okay and they can put weight and walk on it right away. They usually tend to avoid rotational type movements in the ankle because that’s what reproduces the injury or recreates the pain and puts the ligaments on more stress. So, for those types of more intense activities, that takes certainly a lot longer. If it’s a little bit more severe, sometimes it can be at least six weeks before somebody is putting weight on the ankle.”
