Ankle Laxity

If you have recently suffered from an ankle sprain or injury, it is important that you get treatment for the damaged ligaments as soon as possible. Leaving a damaged ligament untreated could result in chronic ankle laxity, which is better known as chronic instability of your ankle joint.

​

This causes ongoing pain and inflammation that could affect the joint's strength long-term. However, chronic ankle laxity is completely preventable if properly treated. Visit your physical therapist for a comprehensive treatment plan that can help you strengthen the ankles and avoid further injury.
