    Re: Ankle Sprain

    Hi
    Ankle sprains can be awkward to treat if left for long periods. Becuase they are so common people often think they don't need professional treatment.

    Although there is still pain and swelling I would advise you to start a rehab program using range of motion and resistance band exercises. You can find more here:

    Re: Ankle Sprain

    When you say anterior ankle, do you mean a syndesmosis sprain? If so, then this would take longer to get better anyway eg. returns to sport at around 6/52. If it was a grade II syndesmosis sprain then ultimately it should have been treated NWB? Also, have you done any proprioceptive exercises?
