Ankle sprains occur when the ligaments supporting the ankle are stretched or torn, causing pain, swelling, and instability. Dr. Neville provides specialized evaluation and treatment for ankle sprains in Boerne, TX, with a focus on proper healing, restoring function, and reducing the risk of future injury.
Treatment Options
Treatment may include rest, bracing, protected weight-bearing, physical therapy, and a gradual return to activity based on the severity of the sprain.
More Severe Sprains
High-grade ligament injuries may require longer immobilization, advanced imaging, or treatment for associated cartilage, tendon, or bone injuries.
When to Seek Care
Evaluation is recommended for severe swelling, inability to bear weight, persistent pain, or an ankle that continues to feel unstable after a sprain.
Schedule an appointment with Dr. Neville for evaluation of an ankle sprain.
