Measure
Short Leg Cast
The patients in this group will be immobilize with a short leg cast for 14 days, and later they will be able to do physical rehabilitation and will be evaluated with American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society's Ankle Hindfoot scale and Foot and Ankle Disability Index. Short leg cast: Immobilization with short leg cast with a dorsiflexed foot for two weeks.
Platelet-rich Plasma
In this group, the patients will be receive a single dose of autologous platelet-rich plasma, and will be immobilized with a short leg cast. Posteriorly, they will be evaluated with American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society's Ankle Hindfoot scale and Foot and Ankle Disability Index. Platelet-rich plasma: Will be applied 5 mL of autologous platelet-rich plasma under the lateral malleolus, over the anterior talofibular ligament.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Sixth month

The Foot and Ankle Disability Index (FADI) assesses activities such as standing, walking on flat or uneven surfaces, walking on inclines, and the length of time of walking without difficulty. It also includes a section for sports activities and ankle or foot pain (or both). The highest score is 136 points, indicating the best clinical situation, free of pain and limitations, while the lowest score is 0.
