You can't imagine how much this video has helped me. Thank you so much

Really good explanation, thank you for that, I had a severe ankle sprain, probably one ligament was torn, could walk without pain after a week, but I had to cancel my surf trip because the ankle was too unstable, very interesting what you tell about the nerves which have to connect to the brain again, I'm doing a lot of balance training, but my ankle still feels a little unstable after 7 weeks, I think I just have to be patient. But it is getting better - slowly

Glad the video was helpful.

Hello, I had an ankle sprain that severely tore my ligament in the middle of May this year. During that time, the swelling was as big as a potato. I rested it well and went to play football in October, where I had another sprain, but surprisingly no swelling. It did hurt me for a couple of weeks but no swelling. Today, while practice jumpshots in basketball, a guy mistakenly stood near me and I landed on my healing left foot, which sprained again. There is no swelling and I can walk with mild pain. How do I continue from here? It's already about to be November. It sucks not being able to play.

Bracing and help with return to play but with a severe ankle sprain, if the ligament has torn completely, often a lot of balance and ankle stability exercises are needed to make up for the lack of ligament support. Here's a video that may help. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJjRcmx5ZpaMnsksi=XIIvebJUDlwHVBgD

​@@More4LifeThank you very much. How long before I return to play? I got me a brace.

I sprained my ankle twice in the past 10 days playing basketball. I waited 8 days before returning the first time I sprained it. Both times I didn't have any swelling or issues bearing weight. Did I just not give it enough time to heal between sprains? Should I start playing with an ankle brace?

[@More4Life]

You'd need someone to evaluate the stability of your ankle in person to determine IF you're currently ready to go back to playing basketball. However, when you do go back, it is generally advisable to wear braces when you initially return to play.

I was walking and i stepped my foot on a uneven place i walked it did not hurt a day after it got a little swollen and there is some pain

[@More4Life]

Hope you feel better soon. The fact that it didn't hurt right away is usually a good sign though.

Hi doctor, I play football, I got an ankle injury, I feel pain at the back of my foot when i place my heel on a surface and point my toes down, but I can’t tell which part of my foot is hurt… even when I press my Achilles or my heel or try to reach for my taulus, I don’t feel any pain… I can’t tell what is injured 😢 Please help me

[@More4Life]

I can't tell you specifically what's wrong from that information, but here's a playlist about foot and ankle pain including several videos on Achilles tendon problems that may give you some insight: kzbin.info/aero/PLsxYq2xJHBAlNfxVgQZR7ep7V8BoSBO35

I just get ankle sprain 30 July 2023.. Now rest at home after discharge hospital Now in bandages How long to heal as my body size quit big

[@More4Life]

There's no way to possibly tell you that without evaluating it in person. I'd suggest seeing a physiotherapist in your area.

[@More4Life]

@aakashkokkeragadda4680 in 7 months it SHOULD be healed but getting the MRI at this point is reasonable, especially if the ankle is unstable. Many chronic ankle sprains that last that long have some degree of nerve sensitization - either branches of the superficial fibula nerve and/or sural nerve. Make sure your physio is evaluating how you walk, looking at your biomechanics, shoes, and orthotics; NOT just giving you exercises.

I was playing volleyball and landed awkwardly. It hurts so bad😭😭

[@psonykipz6602]

I got ankle sprains and it’s swallen still I can walk run But jumping while landing it’s hard and while shooting a football ⚽️ it’s pain How many days should I need to rest sir🙏

[@More4Life]

It depends on how long ago you sprained it and how severe of a sprain it was. You'd need to have it assessed in person to be able to get a good answer to that question.

[@psonykipz6602]

It’s pain only after I shoot the ball ⚽️ with power Can I play simple run touch But without shooting can I play sir

[@DaiPasha]

i have similar situation, i can jump without getting hurt, but in a heavy squat my ankle gets stressed a bit, also when i kick the ball very hard there is a 10% chance my ankle would hurt for few seconds. have you figured something out?@@psonykipz6602
