Ankle Sprain Explained
An ankle sprain is a stretching or tearing of the ligaments that hold the ankle steady, normally after the foot twists. It is among the commonest holiday injuries.
Why Ankle Sprain Happens
Rolling or twisting the foot on uneven paths, steps, wet floors, sand or in unsuitable shoes. Sport, hiking, dancing and flip-flops all add to the risk.
Signs of Ankle Sprain to Look for
- Stiffness and a feeling that the ankle is unstable
- Pain on the outer side of the ankle
- Difficulty putting weight on the foot
- Tenderness when you touch it
Treatment Options for Ankle Sprain in Gumusluk
You explain how it happened, the physician evaluates the chance of a fracture, suggests painkillers and care, and organises an X-ray or an orthopaedic opinion if needed. Depending on your case, the doctor may suggest pain relief, a supportive bandage or brace and, if a fracture is suspected, an X-ray.
- Use a bandage for gentle support and raise the foot when sitting
- Start gentle movement as pain allows
- Apply a cold pack wrapped in cloth for 15 to 20 minutes several times a day
