Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have an ankle injury, I have 3 small tears in a ligament, I am presently in a flexible cast, i was wondering if there was any nutrition that can help heal the wound naturally. Cancel my request I did not realize that I would have to pay. Thank you.
A balanced diet with good proteins will help the wound to heal naturally. You can also use supplements called Serratiopeptidase, Trypsin and Bromelain to accelerate wound healing and reduce the edema associated with the torn ligaments. You should also do mini movements of your toes to help the healing. Hope this helped. Take care and Good day to you.
