“Ankle Sprains” by Dr. Steve Augustine - Posted 1/5/2005
Dear Readers and Riders,
Ankle sprains are the most common specific injury in sports. They account for 15% to 20% of all sports injuries. They make up 45% of all basketball injuries and 25% of all soccer injuries. They are most common in people under 35 years old and are most common in people from 15 to 19 years old. This is probably because that is when most people are actively participating in high intensity athletics. Ankle sprains represent 7% to 10% of all visits to the emergency room.
