Ankle sprain not healing properly? Evidence-based rehabilitation at Interlink Physiotherapy — with a free 20-minute consultation to start.
Book Free Consultation →Ankle sprains are the most common musculoskeletal injury in active populations — accounting for approximately 40% of all sports injuries according to research published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine (2010). They are also one of the most undertreated. The common advice to rest, ice and wait for it to settle has been replaced by strong evidence supporting early active rehabilitation — and for good reason.
Research published in the American Journal of Sports Medicine (2013) found that up to 40% of people who sustain an ankle sprain go on to develop chronic ankle instability — largely because the injury was never properly rehabilitated. At Interlink Physiotherapy we make sure that does not happen to our patients.
