Among the most common injuries that can be found, we certainly find the ankle sprain: in Italy alone there are about 10,000 cases every day.
After an ankle contusion, injuries are often in the ligaments, but these are not, most of the time, injuries that can have a sequel for the patient.
The presence of swelling and a hematoma are typical features of various traumas to the foot and ankle, including the sprained ankle.
Usually the sprain is accompanied by an edema often localized not only at the level of the compromised area, but extended to the entire ankle, which will therefore appear stiffer and more painful.
Today I massaged the ankle of a patient who suffered a sprain by applying a kinesiotape with a draining function for edema and containing for the joint and I must say that the relief was felt right away!
Great taping by .it
