Repeated Ankle dislocation for 1 month with no Fracture, what to do?

Asked by joscketSeper (323points) March 23rd, 2010

Hi

I was reading in the web and it says ankle dislocation with no fracture is rareee.

Well here i am 1 month of having ankle dislocation and pains when shifting weight or springing on my foot like when doing light jumps, normal walking or light running, dancing.

I can’t do nothing because as soon as i do.. my ankle gets dislocated and it hurts alot. Although it doesn’t stay dislocated, it seems like the ball at the side of the foot, goes out of place and then goes back to normal.and it hurts bad!!

Alittle bit about why it might be
-I have weak bones, have had several knees sprains including meniscus tears . I’m healed but i feel stiff and sometimes knee pain so i have been limping from time to time depending on the weather, etc.. that could be one of the reasons my ankle has been getting weaker

-The leg of the foot that is having the problem is bigger than the other(noticeably). So al my life, that’s the leg i favor because it’s stronger. That leg is also longer(that’s why it got stronger cause all the excersice i did in my life impacted this leg and not so much the other).
So i have an imbalance and have favored that leg, so that might be another reason why my ankle has become weak.

BUT anyways
this hurts alot.
what can I do? Is this a common thing that happens? I guess not

I’m male in my early 30’s
