Careful Diagnosis Helps Fracture Patients Put Best Foot Forward
from
Science Daily
Share
Located in areas of the foot that can be hard to visualize with X-rays and other imaging techniques, injuries to the ankle area of the foot are the most frequently misdiagnosed of all foot fractures. Delayed diagnosis can
have serious consequences, sometimes leading to permanent disability. A new review article published in the December 2009 issue of The Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons shows that a detailed description of the injury, recognition of subtle diagnostic imaging clues, and targeted physical exam can help avoid long-term injuries and disabilities that may occur as a result of these uncommon fractures.

With that door closed, the district began a partnership with Aurora BayCare Sports Medicine in Green Bay, Wis. Through that contract, Melissa Pearson has come on board to work with Two Rivers students.
