Question
what is spurring at the talar dome?

Answer
Dear Antoine,

This Orthopedic Chicago Podiatrist located in West Loop 60661,Roscoe Village 60618, Ukrainian Village 60622, Elmhurst 60126 & Bartlett 60103 says..
Spurring of the talar dome means that there is some extra bone growth on the top part of the ankle bone. Usually spurring occurs at the neck of the talus. Usual cause of spurring is injury & wear & tear arthritis-known as degenerative joint disease.
Hope this helps & Good Luck!
