Having A Knot On Upper Ankle Is Treatable?
I have two questions. One of them is that I have a knot on my upper back. I went to a doctor and they told me that my nerves were pulling my muscles back is there a way to heal it? The second question is I fell off a horse and a hill while running and my ankle keeps bothering me what do u think it is?

Hello,
The knot at the back can decrease with a hot compress and oral muscle relaxants. The pain in the ankle can be due to a sprain. X-ray and MRI scan are needed to find the cause.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Praveen Tayal, Orthopaedic Surgeon
