What Can Cause Ankle Sprain
Rolling or twisting the foot on uneven ground, steps, wet floors or sand, or in unsuitable shoes. Sport, hiking, dancing and flip-flops all add to the risk.

- Stiffness and a feeling that the ankle is unstable
- Swelling and bruising
- Difficulty putting weight on the foot
