[|Human|] Following my walking injury I was diagnosed with a fracture at the bottom of my shin bone or avlusion fracture. The symptoms got worse after putting my weight down on my foot again following crutch related therapy. The initial symptoms were mainly deep bone pain which now involve burning, shooting and electrical feeling pain stemming fr I do?om my ankle bone where it shoots in three directions. Its like the nerves were crossed in my ankle. My Doctor thinks its something else. RSD. What should I do?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for contacting Chat Doctor. There are a couple of options available in a case like yours for continued treatment. One would be to get a repeat X-ray to visualize if they avulsion fragment has displaced further, or has entered into the ankle joint itself. The other suggested diagnosis, RED, would leave you with an option to see a neurologist to have it directly diagnosed, who then would most likely send you to a physical therapist. If it is RSD, it is important to get treatment for the area as soon as possible, as one of the worst things to do is to keep it immobilized. I hope this answers your question, if you have any further questions, I am here to help. Thank you.
