Anesthesia can vary from local anesthesia to general, depending on the procedure. I recommend you make an appointment with a foot and ankle surgeon (podiatrist) for evaluation and treatment options
It depends on the extent of injury, it’s either General anesthesia, local with conscious sedation or spinal with local and conscious sedation.
General anesthesia, conscious sedation, and local anesthesia, or combinations of the above are used for foot and ankle surgery
