i broke my ankle 1 yr ago and since i have had a lump on the side of my foot below my anle bone i think it is and positive that it is a broken ligament. how do they fix an injury like that?
A sprained ankle is a tear in a ligament or tendon, not an injury to a bone.
A torn ligament will effect the ankle bones negatively. An ankle bone that has its ligament torn would be considered a severe ankle sprain.
Each time you sprain your ankle you pull or completely tear a ligament in your ankle. So basicaly everytime you sprain your ankle it is getting weaker and weaker each time!
If you have sprained your ankle previously you may have already completely ruptured the ligament (ATF ligament, likely). Subsequent experiences of rolling your ankle may result in rupturing blood vessels (leading to swelling/bruising) but little pain because there is no ligament left to actually sprain. That, and you are likely quite lax in the ankle joint, meaning it happens easily.
The name of the ligament that provides support against a varus or inversion sprain of the ankle is the lateral ankle ligament. It is also called the anterior talofibular ligament .

There are a few, but the one most clinically relevant (because it is the most often damaged in an inversion sprain) is the anterior talofibular ligament.the name of the ligament that provides support against a varus or inversion sprain of the ankle is the what?Deltoidlateral ankle ligament.
There is no difference. A sprained ankle can also be known as an ankle sprain, twisted ankle, rolled ankle, ankle ligament injury, or ankle injury. It's when one or more ligaments are torn or partially torn where they are connected to your ankle bone.
I would ask your doctor for the best results...
No, a torn ligament is a sprain. A sprain can happen when a ligament is overstretched. It can be caused by a twist or wrench. So a twisted ankle is a sprained ankle. A strain refers to when you tear or overstretch a muscle or tendon (which attach muscles to bones). This can be caused by a sudden stretch or extra effort. So a pulled hamstring is a strained hamstring.
