An ankle sprain is a common injury that occurs when the foot twists or turns beyond its normal range of movement, causing the ankle’s ligaments to overstretch or tear.

A physical therapist can help you recover from an ankle sprain more quickly, rehabilitate the ankle properly using a treatment program specifically designed to your injury, and prevent recurrent ankle pain.
