I dislocated my fibula playing soccer and I didnt know what my injury was after getting 2 Mri's and 4 xrays. I also had multiple doctor and surgeon visits. It's a very tricky injury because its not very well known. After I saw my surgeon a few times, she said she was stumped and decided to send me to a special sports physio therapist. That's where I was diagnosed with (superior tibiofibular dislocation.) I had a year and a half of knee locking episodes where I couldn't walk/bear weight. One of the reasons why it was so tough for them to diagnose my injury was because after a day or so, my knee would pop back by itself in my sleep. So I wouldn't be able to see a doctor in time while my knee was still dislocated. The reason I got my injury was because I landed on my toes with my leg in full extension, causing all the weight to be pushed into the knee rather than being absorbed by it. I really like the contents of this video. It does an amazing job of explaining the bone and its many functions in great detail.
I'm sorry to hear about your challenging experience with a proximal fibular tibia dislocation. It's true that some injuries can be complex to diagnose, especially when they involve less common conditions like this one. I'm glad to hear that you found the video informative and that it provided a detailed explanation of the fibula's functions. Understanding such injuries and their impact can be crucial in the recovery process, and I hope you're on the path to healing and improved mobility.
This was an excellent explanation and visuals, but I'd like additionnal focus on breaks or bruises at the top of the bone, not near the ankle. Everyone focuses on the ankle.
I twisted my ankle and felt a little bit of pain after resting and waking up, I’ve been dealing with an ankle strain for a bit now. Went to the doctor and he said my ankle bone might be weak and I might have a Vitamin D deficiency, so he gave me Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2. I also got some Naproxen for the pain, plus a rofenac gel and a removable wrap. The pain did go down a bit but the fibula is discomforting and hurts a bit even tho he did an x ray and it appeared to be safe, any suggestions? Highly appreciated and thank you
I'm sorry to hear about your ankle pain. Given your symptoms and the treatments prescribed by your doctor, it's important to follow his advice closely. Ensure you take the Vitamin D3 and K2 supplements as directed, as they will help strengthen your bones. Use the Naproxen and rofenac gel to manage the pain, and keep your ankle wrapped to provide support. Additionally, try to rest and elevate your ankle to reduce swelling and avoid putting too much weight on it. If the pain persists or worsens, please follow up with your doctor for further evaluation. ❤️
Whether surgery is required for a fibular avulsion fracture and ATFL (Anterior Talofibular Ligament) disruption depends on the severity of the injury, the degree of instability in your ankle, and the recommendations of your orthopedic surgeon. In some cases, non-surgical treatment, such as immobilization and physical therapy, may be sufficient. However, if there's significant instability or if conservative measures fail, surgery may be necessary to repair the ligament and address the fracture. It's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the most appropriate treatment plan for your specific condition.
@jaypharsarangote4837 In some cases, a fibula fracture doesn’t always need surgical fixation, especially if it’s stable and not affecting the alignment of your leg or ankle. The tibia typically bears more weight, so if your doctor only fixed the tibia, it may be because the fibula can heal on its own without a plate. However, it's important to follow your doctor's recommendations and ensure you're healing properly through follow-up appointments. Always ask your doctor for clarification if you're concerned!
Whenever I looked at a skeleton, I wondered why such a useless looking bone exists. I'm surprised to see that while the Tibia does support weight as expected, the Fibula has a more technical use and supports a significant amount of important tendons.
The fibula may seem overlooked, but its role in supporting tendons and stabilizing the ankle is crucial for mobility and balance alongside the tibia's weight-bearing function.
@BAZINGA103 If you have an injury to the fibula and your doctor has determined that it doesn't require surgery, that’s a good sign! Many fibula fractures can heal well with conservative treatment, such as rest, immobilization, and physical therapy. It's important to follow your doctor's advice and monitor your recovery to ensure proper healing. If you have any concerns or experience increased pain, it's best to reach out to your healthcare provider.

@@MedicalCentric Thank you so much
is it fine if my doctor didn't fix or put a metal plate to my fibula ? they only fix my tibia.
