Symptoms of Ankle Sprain
- Swelling and bruising
- Difficulty putting weight on the foot
- Tenderness when you touch it
- Stiffness and a feeling that the ankle is unstable
Common Triggers
Rolling or twisting the foot on uneven paths, steps, wet floors, sand or in unsuitable shoes. Sport, hiking, dancing and flip-flops all add to the risk.
