What Would Be The Right Range In Degrees For Coronal Plane Of The Ankle?

I m trying to understand the coronal plane of the ankle. It s degree has a connection to whether or not a TAR is an option for treatment. One doctor said 20 - 25 degrees is okay another had said it has to be 10 degrees. I don t understand what they are measuring, and how can there be such a range in differences? I m sorry. I didn t know this was a pay consultation. Thank you just the same. Good night.

25 degree in coronal plane is normal
if you reach only 10 degree it means u need TAR or Fusion
any way if your pain is managable while walking with leaning forward then you can still do physical therapy
if not then you should go with Tar
it is safe and you should not worry abouf it
Hope i was oc assistance to you
Good Luck
