Sports injuries are frequently associated with ankle injuries. However, turning your ankle and hurting it doesn't require you to be an athlete or even a "weekend warrior". A painful and incapacitating sprain can result from something as simple as walking on an uneven surface. Anyone at any age can sustain an ankle injury. However, compared to women over 30, who have higher rates than men, men between the ages of 15 and 24 have higher rates of ankle sprains. During an athletic activity, ankle sprains occur in half of cases. The type of tissue that is injured—bone, ligament, or tendon—defines an ankle injury. Three bones meet at the ankle: the talus of your foot, the fibula and tibia of your lower leg. Ligaments, which are robust elastic bands of connective tissue that hold the bones in place while permitting normal ankle motion, are what hold these bones together at the ankle joint. Tendons help maintain the stability of the joints by attaching muscles to the bones, enabling the movement of the ankle and foot.
