description
Taylor’s weekly ballet class always lit up her schedule—glossy studio floors, echoing piano notes, and the crisp swish of her tutu made her feel like she was spinning through a storybook. Today started the same: her mom dropped her off with a pep talk, and Taylor joined the warm-up, feet arched in satin slippers. But halfway through a series of rapid pirouettes, her ankle buckled. A sharp gasp cut through the music as she crumpled, clutching her leg. The instructor rushed over, assessing the swollen joint—a possible sprain. Now it’s your turn: as the on-call physician, you’ll need to evaluate Taylor’s injury. Check for bruising or deformity, stabilize the ankle with a brace, and prescribe rest, ice, and elevation. Advise her to avoid weight-bearing moves for 48 hours and schedule follow-up imaging if pain persists. Can you reassure her frustrated tears ("But the recital’s next month!") while ensuring she heals properly? Success means Taylor returns to relevés without long-term damage—fail, and she risks chronic instability. Time to swap pointe shoes for a medical chart. Let’s see if your diagnosis keeps her on her toes.
