These ligaments resemble the plastic that surrounds a six-pack of beer. The first problem resulting from the ankle sprain involves the ligaments that are "stretched out" from the sudden and often violent turning of the ankle past its normal range of motion. Today we will address two effects that are worth your attention. What most people do not realize is that ankle sprains can have nagging consequences that can be seen years after the initial injury. I will also see in the clinic sedentary patients who simply mis-stepped off a curb, stair, or an uneven surface. Soccer, football, ultimate frisbee, basketball, and volleyball are all good examples of popular sports that often result in sprains.
Most of us have regrettably experienced this painful injury through playing sports that require jumping, quick movements, and frequent changes in direction. Ankle sprains are among the most common of diagnoses seen by physical therapists.
