When is an ankle sprain more than just a sprain? In this episode, we sit down with orthopedic surgeon Dr. Casscells to dive into the complexities of ankle instability, assessment, and treatment. He shares his approach to evaluating patients, when imaging plays a role in diagnosis, and how he determines the best course of treatment—whether conservative rehab or surgical intervention. 

We also explore the critical collaboration between surgeons and physical therapists to ensure patients and athletes are fully prepared to return to play safely. If you've ever wondered what goes into the decision-making process behind treating ankle injuries, this episode offers key insights from a surgeon’s perspective.
