LIGAMENT TEAR (ACL/PCL/MENISCAL etc.)
Being a Physiotherapist, we employ a multi-faceted approach to treat ankle sprains, aiming to reduce pain, swelling, and stiffness while promoting healing and restoring function. Treatment typically begins with the R.I.C.E. protocol (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) to manage acute symptoms.
Once inflammation subsides, therapists focus on restoring range of motion, strength, and proprioception through exercises and manual therapy techniques. This includes gentle stretching to improve flexibility, strengthening exercises for the muscles surrounding the ankle, and proprioceptive exercises to enhance balance and stability.
