What does an orthopedic consultation consist of here in Belgium for a persistent ankle injury due to previous moderate/severe ligament tears? I've already had an x-ray in Feb 2023 and nothing was found in the scan, but the foot/ankle gives me pain everyday, especially when walking up and down stairs. After the initial injury, I was supposed to stay off of it, but couldn't.
