Ankle Sprain – Stiffness and Pain

If you find it difficult to move or point your toes after an ankle sprain, I am maybe able to help you. Yesterday, I had a patient with an ankle sprain from a month ago. Although she is able to walk, she is not able to point her toes without pulling sensation and stiffness on the front, outside and back side of lower leg and pain on the outside of the ankle. After carefully examining her sprain, I worked on the muscles on the low leg and ligaments around the ankle. By the end of our session, she is finally able to point her toes without stiffness and pain. Also, the flexibility around her ankle improved!
