TALUS FRACTURE | The talus is the main connector between the foot and leg, and it helps transfer weight and pressure across the _ _ _ _ _ joint. It sits just above the heel bone (calcaneus), and together, the talus and calcaneus are critical to your ability to walk.

A talus fracture is usually the result of a serious trauma to the foot, such as a fall from a great height or a car accident. When fractured, movement becomes difficult and painful, and if the fracture does not heal properly, it can cause complications and impair your ability to walk.

If you’ve suffered an ankle injury, request an appointment with one of our highly skilled ankle experts and get the treatment you deserve.
