Osteochondral Lesions may change the structure or function of the foot and ankle over time. A careful evaluation can clarify the condition and the treatment options that fit your needs.

Treatment Options

Smaller or stable cartilage injuries may be treated with activity modification, immobilization, physical therapy, and other non-surgical measures.

Ankle Arthroscopy & Cartilage Repair

Persistent or unstable lesions may require arthroscopic treatment to address damaged cartilage and stimulate or restore a healthier joint surface.

When to Seek Care

Evaluation is recommended for ongoing ankle pain, swelling, catching, locking, or pain that continues after an ankle sprain.

Schedule an appointment with Dr. Neville to discuss treatment for an osteochondral lesion.
