What exactly is a Lateral Ankle Sprain?
A lateral ankle sprain refers to a ligament injury of either the anterior talofibular and/or posterior talofibular ligament and/or the calcaneofibular ligament. These ligaments collectively provide stability to the lateral aspect of your ankle. It is much easier to sprain the lateral ankle ligaments versus the medial ankle ligaments or the structures involved in high ankle sprains because of the common mechanism of injury (rolling the ankle) and the lateral ligaments are simply inferior in comparison when it comes to their quantity and design. Up to 70% of the general population have or will experience a lateral ankle sprain in their lifetime, that's crazy!
What should Ankle Sprain Rehab Start With?
First and foremost you want to make sure you’re not doing something you shouldn’t be because you actually fractured a bone in your ankle and/or foot. We recommend checking out this article to help you identify this, but ultimately leave this decision to a professional. A good rule to follow is if you cannot put any weight on your ankle/foot and tolerate walking at least four steps, you may want to consider an X-Ray. Once this is ruled out, you can’t go wrong starting with gentle mobility and isometrics! We show you various options in the video!
