What it feels like
Swelling on the outside of the ankle, a bruise that spreads, and an ankle that feels it could go again on uneven ground.
Badly rehabbed sprains are the main reason ankles get sprained again. The good news is that balance training fixes most of that.
What we do
We check the ligaments and rule out a fracture with the Ottawa rules. Strapping or a brace protects it while it settles.
Then balance, calf strength and hopping, until the ankle trusts itself on the court again.
A typical plan.
