Can an xray show this?
The doctor thinks I have a Lisfranc injury or I just broke the blood vessels in my foot. He ordered a MRI today to see if the ligament was injured. My foot is largely swollen, bruised and hurts to point my foot up or down. Would this sound like a Lisfranc injury or not? he said xrays are good but would it he be able to see a very small dislocation of 2 mm?
Answer: X-rays are all but useless for soft tissues such as ligaments. However a Lisfranc fracture shoes up fine in an X-ray.
For the soft tissues, an MRI will definitely work, but it is 100 times more expensive than an X-ray. Ask about ultrasound imaging. It is much cheaper and will probably work just as well.

Considering chiropractic treatment for a Lisfrancs Fracture that occurred almost a year ago.?
On July 27, 2008 I missed a step while walking into our basement. I thought I could just "walk it off," but after a few weeks, I realized that I needed to get some treatment. Treatment was delayed until December because we adopted a baby boy and I didnt have time to think about my foot. In mid-Dec. I got a boot. I wore the boot for three months. In the middle of that time, I had an MRI that suggested the Lisfrancs Fracture was still present and there was damage to the tendon that is below my ankle. The doctor said no surgery was needed. I wore the boot for six more weeks. Then the doctor put me in a fiberglass cast for six weeks. The cast came off and I did 4 weeks of physical therapy. There has been no change in pain level (it still hurts when I walk on it and even as Im sleeping) and my ankle is continually swollen. The doctor now says surgery is the only other option. Id like to consider chiropractic treatment for this injury instead of going the route of surgery. Has anyone had success with chiropractic treatment for Lisfrancs Fracture?
Answer: The best thing you can do is see a competent osteopath who is trained in manipulation therapy (I know one in the bay area, and depending on where you live, I might be able to find someone in your area). Surgery is completely uncessary for your condition, however very few allopathic doctors are familiar with adjustment treatments.
While I advocate seeing an osteopath, I'm really not sure if a chiropractor would be able to fix this type of problem or if they'd make it worse. It's not within their standard treatment system and I've never talked to someone that saw a chiropractor for this.
Alternatively, while it won't fix the problem completely, if you buy some DMSO and apply it to the area it will get rid of the inflammation, pain and heal some of the tissue damage. If you couple that with not walking on it for a while it may fix itself on it's own.
If you actually want to go the DMSO route, message me and I'll tell you the big things you need to watch for with that.
Hope that helps!

One of my friends said I might have a LISFRANC INJURY but I can mmove my toes/flex. bruised foot not toes heel
Answer: The Lisfranc joint is the midfoot joint (not toes or heal). A Lisfranc injury could mean sprain, dislocation or fracture of the joint. If a Lisfranc sprain is minor, you would still have full function of your foot, just painful movement. If it is a true Lisfranc injury, you may need a cast or surgery.

You should see an orthopedist who specializes in the foot and ankle for a proper diagnosis (a diagnosis from your "friend" is nowhere near enough).

Does anyone have info about lisfranc injuries?
I injured myself in mid July but no fracture noted. After going to a specialist 2 weeks ago it was diagnosed as a Lisfranc injury. I was then told to wear the camboot till 9-28 and then take it from there.

Does an injury requireing the black boot hurt worse then before when you remove it?
6 weeks ago I injured my foot. No fracture. Lisfranc sprain its called and now Im in a black boot thing. I was only having having minimal pain before the boot it had been so long but after only half a day now of this thing I took it off to drive my son somewhere and it hurt like hell!!!!
Answer: Two things commonly happen with the CAM walker...or "black boot."
1. We really forget how much pain we were 6 weeks ago and now we think it is "worse," when it may not necessarily be so.
2. The patient wears the boot for 6 weeks which allows the sprain to heal. Yet, in the meantime, other components of the foot/ankle complex begin to tighten because the CAM walker alters our mechanics so that we do not necessarily need to use our range of motion to capacity. Therefore, when the patient comes out of it and resumes normal mechanics or walking and activity (such as driving a car), these "tightened" structures are called upon. These resrictions frequently cause sharp pain, especially across the top of the ankle because the normal biomechanics between the talus and talar dome have becomed tightened. It may take some time...a few days perhaps, for this to feel significantly better. If it does not, return to your orthopedist who may refer you to physical therapy to mobilizes the sub-talar joint.

I recently had a lisfranc surgery on my foot and needed some clarification on some things?
Hi, im a 16 yr. old male and i recently had a lisfranc surgery on my foot (3 screws). I injured it playing football and had some questions about my recovery. I was in a cast for 2 weeks and now im in a boot for 4 weeks but still cant put weight on it. Ive been in the boot for a week now and havent had any pain so far in my revovery which is a great sign. Im an athlete so im looking to get back into my usual work outs at full strength but the stories i hear about this injury are scaring me. After the screws are out and PT, will it heal and be 100% again? Will there be pain when i run again? Im young so will that effect my recovery in a positive way? Please advise me on my situation.
Thank you
Answer: You will not be able to do any serious weight-bearing until the screws (and wires?) have been removed. After they have been removed, you will need at least another six weeks for the fracture to heal completely.
Your foot will probably never be 100% again, but certainly more than 90-95%.
Yes, there will probably be pain when you start running again, but not like you have been feeling. Give yourself some time to heal.

LISFRANC INJURY, I have surgury in 1 week, need help?
Hello,
My name is chazz and I am 16 years old. Im very good at snowboarding and will be entering the Dew Tours and if I win those ill will be invited to the x-games. But as I post this serious question now 4 hours ago I landed on my foot wrong and went threw the worst pain in my life. 20 minutes after injury I went to the hospital and I was diagnosed with a separation,dislocation, and torn I guess but Lisfranc injury. My MRI is this friday and the following wednesday I have surgery. snowboarding school starts in 4 months will i be able to heal fully by then. are there any PT i could do to make it better and how really severe is this type of injury. I would love for someone that has experienced this injury or knows anything about it . please Im not dealing with this to well and its getting to me very mentally.
Answer: Everyone heals at a difference pace so we can't say how long before you heal but most people heal in 4-6 months. I would drink lots of milk to get extra calcium in the bones so it has plenty of calcium for healing. Also get some Vitamin B Complex, it helps tissue, tendons, etc to heal faster. Take as directed on the bottle, no more, just as directed. Ask you Dr how long before it heals, they know more than anyone.

Help! What did I do to my foot? I dont think its a sprain...?
About two and a half weeks ago I was playing outdoor soccer when I made a quick change of direction and injured my ankle. Or so I thought.
The area around my ankle (below it, the foot) swelled up and I couldnt put wait on it without extreme discomfort for a good 3-4 days. In those days, I stayed put (ie, sitting mostly), used crutches to go between buildings at school, and elevated and iced my foot in the evenings (when I was home from school). My foot bruised (in an odd pattern) but got better and it was then that I noticed that my ankle is not in pain, but rather, the area on the TOP part of my foot where the highest part of my arch is. (But the pain is not under the arch, rather, on the top of the foot).
My foot doesnt bother me when Im just sitting, when I stand on it, or even if Im just holding my foot up and moving my ankle around in all directions (which I do to test for pain). It starts to bother me specifically when Im at the point where Im about to walk: namely, when I am pushing off on the ball of my foot, but the ball is not the part that hurts.
The part that hurts (that area on top of my foot, at the highest point of my arch) is a strip (ligament?) that runs next to that long, thin bone (I think) that seemingly connects your big toe to your ankle. But the pain is nowhere near my big toe, its at that part I keep describing - closer to my ankle. Im just saying that the exact area of pain lines up with that long, thin bone.
I can walk but I do so with a limp. Like I said, standing doesnt hurt, but if I go to actually push off on the ball of my foot (so as to take a step), that is when I get a pain.
My question is, it has been two weeks now with slow, moderate improvement: should I give it more time before I go see a doctor?
What sort of injury does this sound like? fracture? Lisfranc injury?
How long can I expect to stay off of it for a full recovery? 25 y/o runner, female, non diabetic, otherwise good health (blood work - normal)
Answer: You can either have broke/fractured (same thing!) the 1st metatarsal which is the bone that runs from your big toe to your ankle (your toe and ankle being separate bones) OR you could have pulled a ligament, which there is one that runs from your big toe over the top of the 1st metatarsal to your ankle then that muscle runs up your leg. The way you are describing it sounds like a pulled the ligament. I rolled my foot last year where I broke blood vessels, my foot swell, I had a HUGE blood pocket, bad bruising, I though I had broke bones!! But it ended up being a pulled ligament, I had to be on crutches. I could not walk normally for a few weeks. It can take up to 6 weeks or longer to heal a pulled or torn ligament. If you feel pain when walking it still hasn't healed yet! Do not run or play sports or it will never heal! Also a Dr will not do anything for this type of injury other then perscribe anti inflamatories.

No pain in or near ankle. The EXCRUCIATING pain was across the top of the midfoot just before its widest points. There is slight bruising on the underside of foot on side of big toe and top side of foot on side of pinkie toe. Horrible pain to move toes at all. This pain radiated up to my knee with the most severe point being behind the knee. Oddly, there was only slight pain when the injury first occurred and over the next 2 hours became absolutely unbearable causing me extreme embarrassment in the ER as I was literally writhing and crying in pain. No fracture seen. UNBELIEVABLE to me!!! But I was surprised when the ortho tech came in and applied a soft cast/half cast/splint thing up to my knee.

I have 2 questions about a LISFRANC INJURY (with 3 screws put in)?
1. My foot is swollen and still hurting 8 weeks after the injury happened. The doctor said it was fine to walk and put weight on.......Is there anything i can do to stop the pain or should i see a doctor and get it checked again.
2. I want to know how long it will take for my foot to fully recover at the moment i cant walk far.....And it sucks cause i love walking.
Answer: It is not unusual to have some residual swelling at this stage but it should be down from after the surgery. If it is still significantly swollen then the trip to the doctor is needed. If you are uncomfortable and want a direct answer to the questions you have then speak to the surgeon for that person was the only one working on the foot. The more you use it the more the pain will start to decrease. As for walking I suggest that you try walking in a swimming pool. Go to a level where the water is chest high and then walk. This will reduce the amount of stress on the foot by about 40%. As the foot get less painful start walking in slightly shallower water. Continue this until you are able to walk around in ankle deep water without problems. Also ride a stationary bike but don't use much resistance to the flywheel.

Answer: You should ask your Doctor this question. I would say no from people I know who have had this surgery. But your Doctor may say yes, with certain precautions. But I wouldn't do any of those things until you have cleared it with him. I'm fairly sure that he would be able to send you to a Physio that would make you able to run again but again, I would not even try running until you have cleared it with him. Getting the surgery is usually not the last step in the healing process.
