What are some ways to prevent a rolled ankle?

Support: If you have already rolled the ankle a few times, the best way to prevent recurrence is to use an ankle support or expernal brqce. It is impossible to strengthen torn ligaments. Stretching exercises may help, but if the ligaments are already damaged, splint or brace is the best way..
