QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q: What are some common causes of Ankle Pain?

A: Some of the most common Ankle pain can occur by accidental injuries, strains or sprains. An ankle injury usually involves a sudden and/or unexpected loss of balance, resulting in a sharp twist of the ankle. A strain occurs when a muscle or tendon becomes overstretched. A sprain is more serious and occurs when ligaments (the strong connective tissue that connects one bone to another) become overstretched.
