High Ankle Sprain Injury
A sprained ankle is the most common ankle injury in sport. A High Ankle Sprain refers to soft tissue damage to the ligaments of the ankle Syndesmosis, which is the joint between the Tibia (shin bone) and Fibula (splint bone). This ankle ligament damage is characterised by ankle pain and a swollen ankle.
Severe High Ankle Sprains may need surgery although physiotherapy treatment is effective for moderate injuries. In the early stages it is important the follow the PRICE protocol for treatment of a sprained ankle – protection, rest, ice, compression and elevation.
Common High Ankle Sprain signs & symptoms:

- Pain just above the ankle.
- Swollen ankle.
