The ankle is critical when you run, cut, jump or simply walking. Our sports physical therapists will help you build the plan to put injury in the past for good.
The ligaments on the outside of the ankle stretch or tear when the foot rolls in, often from landing on someone's foot or uneven ground. Expect pain, swelling, bruising and trouble putting weight on the ankle.
An injury to the ligaments that hold the two lower leg bones together just above the ankle, usually when the foot is twisted outward. Common in football and soccer, it hurts higher up than a regular sprain and often takes longer to come back from.
An ankle that keeps rolling or giving way after sprains that never fully healed. It brings repeat sprains, lingering swelling and an ankle you don't trust on uneven ground or when you cut.
Overuse of the tendon that connects your calf muscles to your heel bone. Common in runners and athletes who ramp up training quickly, it starts as an ache above the heel after activity and stiffness first thing in the morning.
A full or partial tear of the Achilles tendon, usually during a push-off, jump or sprint. Many people feel a pop, like a kick to the back of the calf, followed by pain, swelling and trouble pushing off or rising onto your toes.
Irritation of the thick band of tissue that runs along the bottom of the foot from the heel to the toes. It causes a stabbing pain near the heel that's usually worst with your first steps in the morning or after sitting.
Irritation of the tendons that run along the outside of the ankle behind the bony bump. Common in runners and after ankle sprains, it causes pain and swelling on the outer ankle that gets worse with activity.
A break in one or more of the bones that form the ankle joint, from a hard roll, fall or impact. Once the bone heals, rehab restores motion, strength and balance so the ankle can handle running, jumping and cutting again.
The cartilage in the ankle joint wears down, often years after a fracture or repeated sprains. Expect pain, stiffness and swelling that make walking, stairs and uneven ground harder.
Rehab after ankle ligament repair, Achilles repair or fracture surgery. We protect the repair early, then rebuild calf strength, balance and power step by step until you're back to running and jumping.
