@drdavidabbasi: This is how surgeons put your ankle back together after a fracture 😳 When the bone breaks badly enough that it can't heal on its own, a metal plate gets screwed directly into the bone to hold everything in perfect alignment while it heals. What you're watching is called open reduction internal fixation — and that hardware stays in permanently. The precision required here is everything. Every screw has to be placed at the exact right angle and depth to hold the fracture stable without interfering with surrounding tendons, nerves, or blood vessels. Get it right and the patient walks normally again. Get it wrong and the ankle never moves the same way. ✅Follow @drdavidabbasi for More Daily Medical Content & Health Tips!🌴😷Schedule a consultation in Delray Beach! Visit www.primeorthocenter.com

I feel like I have a ligament or something that catches a screw head every once in a while and it hurts so bad.

With the rising costs of greed driven healthcare in the United States, it’s great that we have DIY videos to show us what to do. The local hardware shop typically has everything you need. (Anesthesia is extra)
