How Ankle Sprain Feels

What Can Cause Ankle Sprain
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.
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.
Local Tips for Ankle Sprain in Moda
A night out in Moda often ends with dehydration, a sore throat or a twisted ankle by morning. Close by are Bagdat Caddesi, Cihangir, Sirkeci, which share the same medical services. High heels, cobbles and late nights on stairs are a frequent cause. Take care on uneven pavements, and rest and ice any sprain.

How Ankle Sprain Is Treated
You explain how it happened, the doctor assesses the chance of a fracture, suggests pain relief and care, and organises an X-ray or an orthopaedic opinion if needed. Depending on your case, the physician may suggest pain relief, a supportive bandage or brace and, if a fracture is suspected, an X-ray.
- Rest the ankle and avoid heavy walking at first
- 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
