Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate are the most well-marketed dietary supplements directed toward managing symptoms associated with osteoarthritis. The presumption of their benefit in the ankle is based largely on promising results from their use in knee osteoarthritis. Likewise, viscosupplementation has proved to be efficacious in the management of osteoarthritis of the knee. Preliminary studies demonstrate a realization of this benefit in the ankle joint, but further research is required. So far, the literature has shown the dietary and viscosupplementation discussed in this article to be relatively safe for use.
氨基葡萄糖和硫酸软骨素是针对管理与骨关节炎相关症状销售最广的膳食补充剂。它们对踝关节有益的推测很大程度上基于其在膝关节骨关节炎中使用所取得的有前景的结果。同样，关节腔内注射透明质酸钠已被证明在膝关节骨关节炎的管理中有效。初步研究表明踝关节也能实现这种益处，但还需要进一步研究。到目前为止，文献表明本文讨论的膳食补充和关节腔内注射透明质酸钠使用起来相对安全。
