S90-S99: Injuries to the ankle and foot

S93: Dislocation, sprain and strain of joints and ligaments at ankle and foot level

The group of conditions labeled as dislocation, sprain and strain of joints and ligaments at ankle and foot level typically results from injuries to the lower extremity. Such injuries can occur due to various reasons such as incorrect landing during a jump, twisting the ankle, excessive force applied to the joint or sudden shocks to the area. These conditions often cause pain, swelling, inability to use the joint, and sometimes visible deformity of the area, especially in case of dislocations. Dislocations are severe cases where there's a complete or partial displacement of a bone from its normal position in the joint. Sprains involve stretching or tearing of ligaments, which are the tissues connecting two bones. Strains are similar to sprains but affect the muscles and tendons instead. The progression of these conditions can vary depending on the severity and the body's ability to heal, and the affected system is mainly the musculoskeletal system.
