Ankle sprains occur when the ligaments are stretched more then normal. This results in a partial tear or complete tear of ligaments in the ankle. This ligament damage results in the development of abnormal motion at the joint due to the loss of stability.
Sprained ankle are the most common injury to the ankle and the long term consequences of an ankle sprain is a common cause of chronic ankle pain. The most common type is the inversion sprained ankle, in which the ankle rolls over on the outside.
Ankle sprains happen when the foot twists, rolls or turns beyond its normal motions. A great force is transmitted upon landing. You can sprain your ankle if the foot is planted unevenly on a surface, beyond the normal force of stepping. This causes the ligaments to stretch beyond their normal range in an abnormal position.
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may be used to control pain and inflammation.
