Explain reus injury
Thanks Doc for the video. At first sight i did think it was a double injury to the ankle and the MCL in the knee, but good to hear that the medical staff have ruled out any injuries to the knee. Having said that, on assessment, would a possible squeeze test be performed to test for the syndesmotic tear during diagnosis? or would have there been any other special test to confirm this?
