So, let\'s discuss about ankle twist. Confused, about What\'s there to discuss about it? Or why do we need physiotherapy for it? Well ankle twist isn\'t as simple as it seems to be; especially in case for the athletes & sports person. During ankle twist we have great chances to injure our medial & lateral ankle ligament namely Deltoid ligament & ATFL(Anterior Talo Fibular Ligament), PTFL(Posterior Talo Fibular Ligament) and CFL(Calcaneo Fibular Ligament) respectively.
During ankle twist the lateral ligament complex has more chances of injury then the medial one due to the mechanism of injury. When the ankle twist in Eversion or Pronation there are chances of deltoid ligament injury, while ankle twisting in Inversion or Supination may lead to the injury of Medial Collateral Ligaments of ankle.
