Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My daughter plays basketball. She has broken her foot, her back, and her arm in four places. Her bones are not real strong. She is six feet tall and 15 years old. She has been complaining about both her ankles hurting. Because of her past, you know what I am thinking..... When I press on her ankles they hurt. If they are sprained would it hurt more when I let go of the pressure? The funny thing is there is not much swelling!
Yeah, this has to be seen by an expert there are a lot of possibilities. They are all serious in a growing, tall 15 yr old. Even the most minor (muscle strain) needs expert couching on stretching, prevention, and how much to rest versus train. And, can be a stress fracture, a minor fracture, a fracture in the growing part of the foot/ankle that can cause deformity and probably other possibilities.
