Ankles

"Very Severe" injuries ( £29,000 - £40,750) are where there is "soft-tissue damage resulting in deformity that might lead to amputation". "Moderate" injuries (£7,625 - £15,500) include cases which result in "difficulty walking on uneven ground". "Modest" injuries (up to £7,500) are where a complete recovery is likely.
Achilles Tendon
Compensation for this injury varies from "Most Serious" ( up to £22,900) where the tendom is "severedt" hrough to "Minor" injuries (£4,000 - £5,500) are where there is a feeling of "being unsure of ankle support".

Then there is a range of awards from "Very Severe" (£48,850 - £63,625) where the injury must result in "permanent and severe" pain through to "Modest" (up to £8,150) for a simple "metatarsal fracture" Perhaps David Beckham claimed when someone stood on his foot?
