Sprains are disruptions of the ligamentous anatomy about a joint. The ankle sprain is one of the most common injuries seen in podiatric and orthopedic practice. It usually is incurred from an inversion force on the ankle, but eversion forces also can traumatize the ankle. Many times, this injury is taken for granted because of the frequency of its presentation. The patient usually is given appropriate initial care, but the patient can experience continued or residual pain. Podiatrists have found this problem is common and have come to recognize that secondary or accessory injuries occur that slow the natural recovery of this injury.
扭伤是关节周围韧带结构的破坏。踝关节扭伤是足病和骨科临床中最常见的损伤之一。它通常由踝关节的内翻力引起，但外翻力也可使踝关节受伤。由于其发病频率高，很多时候这种损伤被视为平常。患者通常会得到适当的初始治疗，但可能会持续疼痛或遗留疼痛。足病医生发现这个问题很常见，并逐渐认识到会发生继发性或附属损伤，从而延缓了这种损伤的自然恢复。
