Not "Just" An Ankle Sprain...

Ankle sprains are common and the majority are simple. An ankle sprain should never be regarded as a minor injury, as lack of orthopaedic treatment or inappropriate treatment can lead to chronic problems with recurring pain, swelling, repeat injuries, and even the development of arthritis. A thorough orthopaedic evaluation is the ideal way to develop a sound diagnosis and treatment plan. Seeking treatment often facilitates recovery and can often times prevent reinjury.
