Will the orthopedic doctor prescribe a CAM walker or a cast for an overstretched ankle tendon?

For stretched ankle tendon the doctor usually prescribed a cast or a splint to keep the ankle immobile.
Other treatment depending on the severity is bracing to support the ankle, surgery when the orthopedic surgeon thinks there is a need for this. After surgery, physical therapy rehabilitation usually follow and very important.
