Ankle injury : It is important to have your ankle evaluated for a fracture through plain film x-rays. If there is no evidence of fracture the management of a severe ankle sprain can be suggested by your primary care provider. The management for a severe ankle sprain is extremely important to allow the soft tissues to heal and to retrain your ankle to prevent further sprains.
