Following our last post on Serena Williams and her $Following our last post on Serena Williams and her ankle injury, it’s education time now! Today we talk about rehab following ankle sprains, which are very common injuries which can result in long-term joint pain and weakness. Rehabilitation exercises are crucial to ensure that the ankle heals completely and reinjury does not occur. The physiotherapy plan can vary, based on the type of injury, especially if there is an associated fracture. We could summarise as follows: * Within the first 72 hours after your injury, use the POLICE protocol (protect, optimal load, ice, compression, elevation) and then start some gentle range-of-motion exercises (i.e. trace alphabet with toe). * If able, try to walk by bearing some weight, potentially using crutches and depending on the level of pain and injury. * Start exercises to stretch your Achilles tendon as soon as you can do so without pain (i.e. towel stretch: sit with your leg straight in front of you. Place a rolled towel under your foot, holding the towel at both ends. Gently pull the towel toward you while keeping your knee straight. Hold and repeat; Calf stretch: stand facing a wall supporting with your hand. Put the leg you want to stretch behind your other leg. Keeping your back heel on the floor, bend your front knee until you feel a stretch in the back leg). * Generally, when you are able to stand without increased pain or swelling, you can also start strengthening exercises, such as tip toes using the wall to support, or using elastic bands. * At the same time, if you are able to stand without pain, it is crucial to work on proprioception - balance and control exercises. For instance, you could stand on your injured foot only and hold your arms across your chest with your eyes open. When you can do this for 60 seconds, try to repeat with your arms out to the sides, and close your eyes. All the exercises should be continued on a daily basis, even after your ankle feels better. N. B. It is highly recommended to ask for a physiotherapist or consultant opinion/assessment before starting a rehab protocol, especially if you are wanting to return to sport or vigorous activities.
