1
New cards

Primary ankle dorsiflexor

Tibialis anterior dorsiflexion and inversion

2
New cards

Primary plantarflexors

Gastrocnemius and Soleus

3
New cards

Muscle responsible for eversion

Fibularis longus and brevis

4
New cards

Muscle responsible for inversion

Tibialis posterior

5
New cards

Difference between gastroc and soleus

Gastroc crosses knee knee flexion and plantarflexion Soleus plantarflexion only

6
New cards

Most commonly injured ankle ligament

ATFL anterior talofibular ligament

7
New cards

MOI for ATFL sprain

Inversion and plantarflexion

8
New cards

MOI for deltoid ligament injury

Eversion stress

9
New cards

MOI for high ankle sprain

External rotation and dorsiflexion

10
New cards

Structures involved in high ankle sprain

Syndesmosis AITFL and PITFL

11
New cards

Test for ATFL

Anterior Drawer Test ankle

12
New cards

Positive anterior drawer indicates

ATFL laxity

13
New cards

Test for syndesmosis injury

Squeeze Test

14
New cards

Squeeze Test positive finding

Pain at distal tib fib indicates high ankle sprain

15
New cards

Test for Achilles tendon rupture

Thompson Test

16
New cards

Positive Thompson Test

No plantarflexion indicates rupture

17
New cards

Swelling location lateral ankle sprain

Around lateral malleolus

18
New cards

ROM limitation inversion sprain

Pain with inversion and plantarflexion

19
New cards

When to use joint distraction ankle

Pain and joint compression relief early phase

20
New cards

When to use posterior talar glide

Improve dorsiflexion

21
New cards

When to use anterior talar glide

Improve plantarflexion

22
New cards

When to use soft tissue mobilization

Muscle tightness scar tissue chronic stiffness

23
New cards

Early phase exercises ankle

Isometrics gentle ROM edema control

24
New cards

Moderate phase exercises ankle

Theraband strengthening balance training

25
New cards

Advanced phase exercises ankle

Plyometrics cutting sport specific drills

26
New cards

Short term goal ankle sprain example

Decrease swelling and pain restore partial ROM in 1 to 2 weeks

27
New cards

Long term goal ankle sprain example

Return to sport full ROM strength no instability in 4 to 6 weeks

28
New cards

Scenario inversion injury swelling lateral ankle

ATFL sprain

29
New cards

Scenario pain above ankle external rotation

Syndesmosis high ankle sprain

30
New cards

Scenario no plantarflexion with calf squeeze

Achilles rupture

31
New cards

Scenario limited dorsiflexion intervention

Posterior talar glide

32
New cards

Why inversion sprains are more common

Lateral ligaments weaker than deltoid ligament

33
New cards

Progression to next rehab phase

Decreased pain decreased swelling improved ROM strength at least 80 percent

34
New cards

Ankle dorsiflexion ROM

20 degrees

35
New cards

Ankle plantarflexion ROM

50 degrees

36
New cards

Ankle inversion ROM

35 degrees

37
New cards

Ankle eversion ROM

15 degrees

38
New cards

Max phase goal ankle

Decrease pain and swelling protect injured tissue

39
New cards

Max phase exercises ankle

Isometrics DF PF INV EV ankle pumps gentle AROM

40
New cards

Max phase joint mobilizations ankle

Grade 1 to 2 talocrural distraction for pain control

41
New cards

Max phase joint mobs ankle specific

Gentle posterior talar glide within pain free range

42
New cards

Max phase soft tissue ankle

Effleurage for edema control
