I used to play basketball years ago and sprained my ankles ALL the time. I'm a distance runner now and I think those sprains never healed properly because my ankles feel very stiff and all of the surrounding muscles are tight on my runs. Any thoughts on this? Thanks so much
I have a complete tear of my ATFL and CFL, along with a deep deltoid tear (near complete). Would this commonly require surgery or is PT sufficient? I've been on crutches for 3 weeks. This is my first time spraining my ankle.
We would love to help you with your foot and ankle problem, but a complex problem like this really does require in depth evaluation and imaging to make a proper diagnosis. We wish we could do more for you! We would be doing you a disservice with general advice for such an important issue.

I sprained my ankle January of last year(18 months ago) rock climbing and it's still unstable and painful but I keep getting told that I have an incredible range of motion.(btw it was a sprain on the inside of the ankle.)
Twisted my ankle last Saturday. No fracture but possibly ligament have tears as there is still Swelling and pain on the outside ankle bone and ligaments area on it. 5-6 days on and that area still is really, really painful. Any information you can provide and or help improve recovery? Thank you in advance.
I'm going on 8 months. I sprained my ankle in January. I recently finally got my MRI and it came back clean. All my x-rays came back clean. They recommended physical therapy so that's what I'm waiting for. But IDK what's going on.
I sprained my ankle playing basketball in January. It's still stiff and Painful. Even after the icing, bracing, and self care physical therapy. It's the front of my foot that feels jammed. It wasn't anything Major. Your normal rolling of the ankle. I walked on it for a few before I got home and was able to get crutches. Was off work for a week. Then went to work for a couple weeks before I was told by an ER doctornto start walking on it. I've been to the ER several times and because of the insurance situation they didn't wanna refer me for an MRI. I've been battling with the insurance for a couple months now to authorize it. I think it's my anterior tendon that's the issue. And maybe the scar tissue build. The deep fiber finger massage worked and helped relief some of the pain and discomfort a couple months ago but it's still stiff, swollen. IDK what to do.
Since I've had little to no physical activity aside from stretching and trying to build stability and some strength in it. Only thing I do RN is golf. Small courses. All I can do.
I'm in same boat. Rollled it playing basketball 3 months ago went to ER day after I hurt it because I couldn't walk or put any pressure. They gave me a xray even though I knew nothing was broken and they sent me away. Phoned doctors a few times they just say strech. Pains in the front of ankle and can't put knee past toes or walk for more than ten minutes. Doctors don't give a f**k😭
@@Rizwaan. I think I help you if you really need it. Are you still in pain? Email me at everytimeitsace@hotmail.com if interested. I was also in a painful ankle sprain but I healed completely. Let me know if you still need help by sending me an email.
Hey @Mike I hope your ankle healed up, i am legit sprained my ankle the same way as yoy and I also feel stiff and swollen on the top of my foot, did you recover yet by any chance ?
Excellent video. It’s been 5 months since I sprained my right ankle, and I am currently wearing a walking cast. My ankle does not hurt when I walk but there is some swelling on the outside (where you have a little knob). When I initially sprained it, I did not ice it regularly because I didn’t know it was sprained (it did not hurt the day of the injury..it only hurt the next day, then the day after that the pain disappeared). A month after spraining it, I began icing it, then a month later did ankle strengthening exercises suggested by my physiotherapist. I also attended cryotherapy where the doctor did electrical and laser therapy. I did these for a few weeks. I am an athlete and really miss running..could you kindly offer help. On average, how much longer will it take for the swelling to go away? Unfortunately, this injury is playing a toll on my mental health :/ Many thanks doctor

I tripped on a few steps. My ankle is swollen all the way around, and it’s moving up my leg. Is the latter expected?

Might be worth seeing a doc if not improving.
Really amazing, thank you!

It's good you don't have any fracture. I suggest you do HEM, it should stop the pain from that bad sprain. Let me know if you need more help.

Have you tried HEM? That worked for me, I am sure it will work for you as well as long as it isn't a fracture. Let me know if you still need help.
