148. How to assess ankle sprains & start rehab with Zoe Russell

Untreated or poorly rehabilitated ankle sprains can develop into chronic ankle instability (CAI), osteoarthritis, or other lower limb injuries (Bestwick-Stevenson et al. 2021; Delco et al., 2017; Herzog et al., 2019; van Ochten et al., 2017).

In this podcast Zoe Russell discusses ankle sprain assessment and treatment, and how to return your patients to sport. You'll discover how to help your ankle sprain patients fully recover as quickly as possible, and avoid long term ankle issues.
