Bone Scan Result Question... Abnormal?
Is it possible to have "Focal Abnormalities at the ankle joint of the mid tarsal nouns. with findings suggesting artthritic or traumatic changes" as a result of 7 months of limping on that foot?
I injured myself at work in sept of 07' and they still enjoy no idea whats wrong. I "sprained" my left ankle and hold been in a boot almost 7 months because I enjoy no rotation and still excesive pain and swelling. I had a bone scan not long which showed my injured foot as normal, but my good foot showed the aboved quoted findings. Now the insc company requirements to challenge coverage because it is not "compensible with injury". My "good" leg is becoming tender and hard to limp around anymore and I be just curious is this might be the reason...
Any proposal? Its workmens comp related...
Answer:
Numbness surrounded by my leg?
"focal abnormalities" sounds like 'overused and bruised' to me.It's almost imperative that when you injure one ankle that you'd be riding in joystick chairs to alleviate pressure on both the ankles. it's called compensatory damage, because the other side usually get worse, as it is in your case. (For example, when you injure an eye, they cover both your eyes to prevent any unwanted change to your eyesight)
I find it hard to believe that your doctor let you hop around for 7 months on one ankle! Crunches are always recommend to be paired (to prevent damage to the other leg) and cane are recommended to be used on the opposite side of the injured leg to aid the helping leg (non-injured).
I do not know what the worker's comp policy is on that but one must always pinch care of the other leg just as much as the injured one contained by such cases.
i wish you all the best. Sorry if I couldn't be of assistance that much.
