I have just visited hospital once for my friend who was hit by a truck and he seem to be on the way to recovery.

I have a radiology report where the abnormality is noted and a verbal from a foot & ankle surgeon, "you're probably right, but I want a second opinion before doing another procedure". Although I have only had 5 months learning about ankle anatomy & conditions of the ankle, I do have the ability to apply a method of induction to derive true facts from existing facts. Even excluding those facts that are potentially susceptible to my bias, there is still an enormous amount of evidence that points directly to this condition. There is also a very plausible explanation why the diagnosis has been missed by previous surgeons. The question is answered unless a truly unimaginable and remarkable fact comes to light.

Don't deceive yourself into thinking that you have more expertise in medicine than people with years of training and experience. Is this diagnosis agreed upon by your surgeons?
