The ankle is among the joints in our bodies that are subjected to the most strain. It is critically involved in every single step, taking on a variety of important tasks and bearing the complete body weight. It links the foot to the lower leg, enabling us to take stairs, jog or climb mountains. To do that, it needs to be stable, able to bear weight and agile at the same time. Since it is made up of many delicate components and at the same time needs to resist extreme amounts of strain, it is unsurprisingly prone to injury. Find out here which conditions and injuries are common, how they are treated and what you can do to support your ankles’ health.
