Ankle Sprain

An ankle sprain involves stretching or tearing of the ligaments that support the ankle, leading to pain and swelling.​

Common Causes:
  • Twisting the ankle: Often due to walking or running on uneven surfaces.
  • Falls: Landing awkwardly on the foot.
  • Sports injuries: Pivoting or changing direction rapidly.
  • Physiotherapy: Personalized rehabilitation programs to restore function and prevent recurrence.
  • Manual Therapy: Mobilization techniques and sports massage therapy to maintain joint flexibility and reduce discomfort.
  • Tailored rehabilitation plans: return to sports plans and gym exercises.
  • Shockwave therapy: May be utilized for certain tendon injuries to promote healing and reduce pain.
  • Steroid Injections: Can provide pain relief for inflamed joints and soft tissues.
  • Education: Strategies to prevent re-injury, including proprioceptive training and appropriate footwear recommendations.
