Collection: Sprained foot
Ankle sprains are one of the most common sports injuries. The injury occurs when you step crookedly, usually so that the foot turns inward resulting in the ligaments on the outside of the foot being overextended. This can either result in small bleeding or parts of the ligament coming off. This usually heals on its own, but can take a different amount of time depending on how it is treated. The best way to minimize the damage and shorten the period of illness is to quickly apply an elastic bandage with good compression.
