Ankle sprain
In March, I went for a long run and started feeling the ankle pain afterwards. My MRI reports says: Chronic high-grade sprain of the calcaneofibular ligament. Low-grade sprain of the anterior talofibular ligament. Mild subfibular peroneus brevis tendinosis, with minimal fluid in the tendon sheath. My doctor suggested surgery, should I wait it out?
