Un esguince de pie o tobillo es una lesión de tejido blando. Con mayor frecuencia, un esguince ocurre cuando una lesión tira, estira o desgarra los ligamentos que conectan hueso con hueso. Una fractura es en realidad una fractura en el hueso. Muchas roturas y esguinces ocurren durante la práctica de deportes. Tropezar o tropezar en terrenos irregulares es otra causa común de esguinces y fracturas de pie y tobillo. Los síntomas de un esguince o una fractura de pie o tobillo incluyen dolor, hinchazón, hematomas y dificultad para caminar sobre el pie o tobillo afectado.
