Some common signs and symptoms of high ankle sprain include:
🦶Pain that radiates from the ankle
🦶Difficulty when walking or bearing weight
🦶Tenderness or bruising at the upper ankle (Do note that this list is not exhaustive!)
A high ankle sprain occurs when the syndesmosis, a joint at the lower leg, is injured. The syndesmotic ligaments, which connect the ends of the tibia and fibula, play a crucial role in ankle stability. This type of injury is typically caused by forcefully turning the foot outward and upward, often combined with body weight. like ice hockey or football are common culprits, but it can also happen from a misstep or falling off stairs.
