Understanding Ankle Instability:
Ankle instability usually results from an ankle sprain that has not adequately healed or was not treated properly. This can lead to a cycle of injury and instability. Symptoms may include persistent discomfort and swelling, a feeling of wobbliness, or the ankle repeatedly “giving way” during activities or even while standing.
Causes of Ankle Instability:
The primary cause is often a sprained ankle that didn’t recover fully, leading to stretched or torn ligaments. Factors that can increase your risk include high-impact sports, uneven surfaces, and previous ankle injuries. Genetics may also play a role in predisposing individuals to ankle instability.
Our Ankle Instability Treatments:
Non-Surgical Treatments:
● Physical Therapy: Customized exercises to strengthen the ankle, improve balance, and restore range of motion.● Bracing: Wearing a supportive brace to stabilize the ankle during activities.
Surgical Options for Chronic Ankle Instability:
For cases where non-surgical treatments do not provide relief, surgery may be necessary to repair or tighten the ligaments around the ankle.
