Ankle Sprains: All You Need To Know

An ankle sprain is a common injury, especially for athletes. It can also happen to any individual during their daily movements.  Even a misstep or a sudden twist can result in a painful ankle sprain. But needless to worry, Sporlastic has got you covered. We offer the best quality ankle braces online, that are designed to speed up your recovery while providing perfect fittings, thus reducing any discomfort.

Causes

Ankle sprains usually occur if your ligaments suddenly stretch and go beyond the normal range of motion. This causes the ligaments to tear abruptly leading to a swelling and painful ankle injury. It can happen to anyone and in any circumstances. Some of the common reasons are:

• Twisting the ankle due to sudden abrupt movements.

• Walking or running on uneven surfaces.

• Wearing improper footwear that doesn’t provide necessary support to the ankles.

Symptoms

It is important to recognize the symptoms of an ankle sprain for timely treatment:

• Acute pain around the ankle.

• Gradual swelling accompanied by a bruise.

• Difficulty in walking.

• A feeling of weakness or instability in the ankle.

Treatment

A quick & effective treatment can help you recover faster. Here are some recommended steps:

• Rest the injured ankle and apply ice to reduce swelling.

• Try to keep the foot elevated whenever possible.

• Using an ankle gel cast or compression bandages can reduce swelling.

Wearing ankle braces helps provide support to your ankles while letting your injured ligaments rest. At Sporlastic, you can buy ankle supports online  to ensure you have the best protection.

In severe cases, an ankle foot orthosis may be recommended to support the ankle and foot.
