i'm amazed that there's an entire internet forum just for osteochondral defects. not an ortho forum with an OCD subforum or a few threads. a whole forum.
Muscles are nonsensical they have nothing to do with this bullshit.

i have arthritis in the old metatarsophalangeal joints (big toes on both feet). there is no recovery, only adaptation until they get good enough at replacing that joint to make surgery worthwhile.

ETA: unrelated to my pic but i've sprained my right ankle 6-7 times. recovery has varied a lot but i do know a fair amount about it at this point. actually one of those injuries was what precipitated my getting interesting in training in the first place.

Darn that sucks  :( ...would you say your vertical has been hampered significantly by these issues?

Thanks. Did you tear a lot of ligaments as well? Got an MRI?

No MRI unfortunately.

I was told at least ant talo fib was gone from assesment, my ankle was black all over and after weeks in immobilisation it came out as thin as my wrist. Rig was in my basketball dream days though so I was super in it with rehab.

Did have and still do to a slight extent have some problems with bone spurs etc, but they just limit dorsiflexion a bit which cam be fixed/gotten around. It's actually stronger than my left ankle now, but I still wear braces all the time when playing basketball. Also mentally it turned me into a little bitch so I never drive hard anymore.

Btw, do completely torn ligaments heal with PT? Or does the surrounding structure just get stronger and compensate?

It's not. Try it yourself. You can get more a bit more than 50% of your running vert on a standing jump with each leg. Prior to the injury i was at 19" standing on my left leg and 16" standing with the right leg. I had patellofemoral pain disorder for 3 years which fucked my right leg. I'm guessing that weakness played a huge role in the the dislocation i suffered...Maybe measure your standing verts with both legs and see how much that arthritis is screwing that leg?

EDIT: 4 years ago I landed on my right knee hard in game and the only thing that came up was a "bone contusion" on the MRI. This caused chronic patellofemoral pain which finally healed on its own.
