The total weight of the body is transmitted through the ankle to
the foot
The ankle and foot must balance the body and absorb the impact
of the heel strike and gait
Despite thick padding along the toes ,sole and heel and stabilizing
ligaments at the ankle ,ankle and foot are frequent sites of sprain
and bone injury

What is the patient’s chief complaint?
Pain?
Where? When? How bad?

INGROWN NAILS
A hammer toe shows extension of the MTP joints and the DIP joints. The PIP joints
are hyperflexed.
A mallet toe shows a flexed DIP joint, most commonly of the second toe.
PALPATION
Look for a bunion and bunionette
(bony deformity) at the MTP joint.
It’s a deformity of the joint
connecting the big toe to the foot.
The big toe often bends towards the
other toes and the joint becomes red
and painful.
Metatarsalgia is a common overuse injury.
The term describes pain and inflammation in
metatarsal bone
TEST
The
metatarsophalangeal
joints
Move the proximal phalanx
of each toe up and down.
Pain suggests acute
synovitis.
Instability occurs in chronic
synovitis and claw-toe
deformity.
TARSAL BONES
• Calcaneus
• Talus
• Navicular
• Cuboid
• 3 Cuneiform bones
FRACTURES OF THE
TALUS
Fractures occur at the neck or body of
the talus.
NECK FRACTURE
occur during violent dorsiflexion of the ankle
joint when the neck is driven against the
anterior edge of the distal end of the tibia.
e.g., when a person is pressing extremely hard
on the brake pedal of a vehicle during a head-
on collision
BODY OF THE TALUS FRACTURE
Occurs by jumping from a height, although the
two malleoli prevent displacement of the
fragments.
FRACTURES OF THE
CALCANEUM
Compression fractures of the calcaneum
result from falls from a height.
The weight of the body drives the talus
downward into the calcaneum, crushing
it producing a comminuted fracture.
A calcaneal fracture is usually disabling
because it disrupts the subtalar
(talocalcaneal) joint, where the talus
articulates with the calcaneus.
ACHILLES TENDON
TEST
• Patient lies is prone on
the bed or kneel on a
chair. The examiner
gently squeeze the
Thompson’s test gastrocsoleus muscle
(calf).
Achilles’ tendon • If the tendon is intact,
rupture then the foot
passively plantar
flexes when the calf
is squeezed.
BURSA
• ANKLE JOINTS
• Tibiotalar Joints
• Subtalar( Talocalcalcaneal
) Joints
• Tibiofibular joint

PROVOCATIVE TESTS
CALCANEOFIBULAR LIGAMENT
- 2nd most common ligament injury in lateral
ankle sprains
mechanism is dorsiflexion and inversion
- physical exam shows drawer laxity in
dorsiflexion
subtalar instability can be difficult to
differentiate from posterior ankle instability
because the CFL contributes to both.
LOW ANKLE SPRAIN
(CONT.)
• Symptoms
• pain with weight bearing (may or may not
be able to bear weight)
• swelling and ecchymosis
• recurrent instability
• catching or popping sensation may occur
following recurrent sprains
• Physical exam
• focal tenderness and swelling over-involved
ligament(s)
LOW ANKLE SPRAIN
(CONT.)
ANTERIOR DRAWER TEST
It tests for the integrity of anterior talofibular
ligament. It detects excessive anterior
displacement of the talus on the tibia.
