Ollier`s Disease

Ollier`s Disease is usually associated with a bony prominence under the toenail.

Some form of injury or trauma to the toe results in the formation of the bony irregularity or prominence.


What are the most prevalent foot and ankle injuries?

Ankle sprains. Sprained ankles are one of the most common injuries in sports. Because the inner ankle is more stable than the outer ankle, the foot is likely to turn inward (ankle inversion) from a fall, tackle, or jump. This stretches or tears ligaments; the result is an ankle sprain.
