Not all ankle sprains are created equal. In this episode of The Spinal Truth, Dr. Caleb Slater breaks down what makes a high ankle sprain so different—and so much more serious—than the common rolled ankle. From pain location and healing time to the exact ligaments involved, this episode covers everything you need to know if you or someone you know has suffered this type of injury.
We cover:
What a high ankle sprain actually is (and how it happens)
Why walking on it can make it worse
How to tell the difference between high and low ankle sprains
The right way to treat it (and when you need imaging or surgery)
What recovery looks like—and when you can return to activity
👉 If you're dealing with ankle pain and aren't sure what kind of sprain you have, this episode will help you understand the real difference—and why it matters.
