Question regarding healed ankle sprain...psm - Lynn


Posted: Jul 23, 2012

Doc dictates patient has excellent range of motion pf ankle, some soreness, good strength, compartments are soft, and s/l gross instability of his ankle.  Diagnosis is a healed ankle sprain.  I may not be hearing it correctly, but it does s/l gross instability.  Are there any other possibilities or is this a possibility with a healed sprain?

Thank you for any help.

Any chance he is saying "no gross instability?" NM - anon

It sounds like he's saying "does have gross instability." But now I can hear "there's no gross instability."

Thank you! Don't know why I couldn't hear that!! Sheesh.

It's the small words that kill ya. NM - anon
