KS Ortho Care – Specialized Treatment for Ankle Cartilage Damage
The ankle joint is lined with smooth cartilage that cushions bones and allows pain-free movement. Cartilage injuries in the ankle occur when this protective tissue is damaged due to trauma, repetitive stress, or degeneration. If left untreated, cartilage injuries can lead to chronic pain, stiffness, and early arthritis.

Swelling and tenderness
Limited range of motion or stiffness
Catching, locking, or grinding sensations in the joint
Difficulty bearing weight during walking or running
Acute trauma such as ankle fractures or sprains
