Ankle Instability

Chronic ankle instability results from repeated ankle sprains or ligamentous laxity, leading to persistent “giving way” sensations and impaired performance in athletes.

Anterior Ankle Impingement

    • Recurrent ankle rolling or sprains

    • Swelling and pain after activity

    • Feeling of looseness or instability

  • Physical examination and MRI assess ligament integrity and rule out associated injuries.

  • Rehabilitation focuses on strengthening and balance training. Persistent instability may require minimally invasive ligament reconstruction or arthroscopic stabilization.

  • Return to sport typically occurs within 3–5 months following surgical repair.
