Summary

This study tests whether a local injection of multiple pain medicines works as well as regional anesthesia (numbing a larger area) for controlling pain after ankle fracture surgery. Researchers will compare pain scores, complications, and costs in 200 adults with rotational ankle fractures. The goal is to find a simpler, safer, and more affordable pain control option.
