Suggest Treatment For Corticated Calcified Densities On Foot
I have pain in my right foot/ankle. It may have happened due to too much walking. The x-ray s findings state that there are some well-corticated calcific densities noted adjacent to the medial malleolus likey related to remote trauma. Could you please tell me what this means? Is there treatment for this?
