fisioterapia-on...
Sprain or sprained ankle is a common problem and is also incorrectly treated by conventional medicine, as it is immobilized in plaster too often. However, it would be more appropriate to apply a functional bandage allowing partial mobilization but surely achieving a healing optimum ligament, a hematoma resorption and lower inflation, and prevent chronic pain in the ankle joint.
The taping is the best measure of treatment for a sprained mild ankle sprain moderate ankle sprain severe ankle as it allows the ankle to recover faster injured ligaments or torn ligaments best scars and the rehabilitation process begins before , so it is more comfortable for the patient in addition to reducing the risk of relapse and the left ankle with chronic pain or badly sprained ankle healed. In any case it is always advisable to rule out an x-ray bone fractures, tibia, fibula, talus or scaphoid.
In this video how to perform a functional bandage sport even allow the ligament heals as indicated.
This taping will also be a good help in addition to other techniques such as deep transverse massage or massage cyriax, proprioceptive exercises, physiotherapy and other measures.
If this just happened, ice bag for 30 minutes before dressing.
If you are using tape to immobilize, this is what you do:
Use 1 "or 2" tape, if possible.
First tape from just above the ankle, lower leg and the envelope under the heel - then back to the other side of the leg, so that the first bandage runs parallel to the leg and is wrapped under the heel.
Then the tape from the side of the back wrap around the foot heel, and on the other side of the foot. This piece of tape is parallel to the foot and at right angles (perpendicular) to the first piece of tape.
Repeat this process so there are 4 pieces of tape in each direction - a total of 8 peices tape. Vertical, horizontal ... vertical, horizontal, and so on.
Finish tape running a circle around the ends of the other tape to not come off easily (two circles, because there are two places where the tape ends show).
Make sure the tape is not reduced circulation.
If you are using an Ace, Koban, bandage or elastic bandage:
make a circle around the instep of the foot, so own and stays in place bandage overlaps.
Now, put a circle around the ankle.
Repeat until you have used up all the dressing. Be very careful not to let blood circulation.
Secure the bandage on the ankle.
Check frequently for circulation.
Personally, I prefer the elestic coats if the victim has to walk (if you're hiking backcountry, for example) as flex and less likely to travel to the victim, causing a fall. The tape method, however, has worked for years and is better for immobilization.
Sprained ankle symptoms
The most common symptoms associated with an ankle sprain are pain with swelling and bruising. The degree of symptoms tends to correlate well with the extent of damage to the ligaments.
Grade I ankle sprain:
Grade I ankle sprains cause stretching of the ligament. Symptoms tend to be limited to pain and swelling. Most patients can walk without crutches, but may not be able to run or jump.
Grade II Ankle Sprain:
An ankle sprain grade II is the most severe partial tear of the ligament. There is usually more significant swelling and bruising caused by bleeding under the skin. Patients usually have pain when walking, but you can take some steps.
Grade III ankle sprain:
Grade III ankle sprains are complete tears of the ligaments. The ankle is usually quite painful, and walking can be difficult. Patients may complain of instability, or a feeling of giving way in the ankle joint.
As stated before, the pain and swelling are the most common symptoms of an ankle sprain. Patients often notice bruising on lesion area. This bruising will move down the foot towards the toes in the days after ankle sprain - the reason for this is gravity pulls blood down on the foot.
