Need an item which prevents me from twisting my ankle?
Hi,
i have twisted my ankle 2 in a month. I think i need to buy an ankle protectors, but the thing is i don't know what i need to buy to prevent twisting my ankle again. And can you also tell me how an Ankle Guard works Thanks!
Hey... I have two dodgy ankles. Ankle guards can help but only if they are tight. They basically restrict the lateral movement of the joint to prevent it from rolling over.
But the best thing you can do is buy some strapping tape, and learn how to strap your ankle. There are some instructional videos on youtube. This will provide the best support. I have twisted my ankle wearing a cheap ankle support but have never caused any addtional damage while it is strapped with strapping tape.
Also important is rehabilitating the injured ankle. Just start by standing on one foot while you are brushing your teeth. If you are balancing OK on the injured ankle you can progress to standing on one foot, and throwing a ball against a wall (or to a friend) at catching it.
