Ankle Sprains and Its Causes

Ankle sprains can vary significantly in severity and require a tailored approach to treatment. Dr. Babich emphasizes the importance of accurate diagnosis, which involves understanding the mechanism of injury and the degree of ligament damage. Treatment strategies can range from conservative methods such as rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE), to more advanced interventions including physical therapy for strength and flexibility recovery, and in some cases, surgical repair for more severe injuries. Dr. Babich is committed to helping his patients achieve a full recovery, utilizing the latest research and techniques in podiatric medicine to ensure the best possible outcomes for those suffering from ankle sprains.
