Ankle Sprains

A physiotherapists outlook on ankle sprains based on research available here and here.

• Approximately 25,000 people sprain their ankle everyday 
• About 50% of recurrent (2 or more) ankle sprains result in chronic pain or disability
• There is strong evidence supporting physiotherapy led intervention in the first week after ankle sprain improves ankle function and early return to weight bearing activity such as walking.
• Surgery is rarely needed, however, an improperly rehabilitated ankle may develop chronic ankle instability (CAI)
