Hi Lybrate user, an ankle sprain is a common musculoskeletal injury that involves the stretch or tear (partial or complete) of the ligaments of the ankle. You can visit near by physiotherapy clinics, physiotherapy provides the most effective and most efficient treatment for ankle sprains. Physical therapists help people with ankle sprains reduce their pain; regain strength, motion, and balance; and return to normal activities.
Thanks and regards.

Hi lybrate-user, the most common causes include injury, arthritis and normal wear and tear. Depending on the cause, you may feel pain or stiffness anywhere around the ankle. Your ankle may also swell, and you may not be able to put any weight on it. Usually, ankle pain gets better with rest, ice and over-the-counter pain medications.
