Abstract
The anatomy of the ankle, and the types of sporting injuries that occur in this joint, are described. Traditional treatment of soft tissue injuries involves immobilisation, and the value of this ist questioned. An alternative treatment strategy is described, involving ice and compression for twenty-fourhours, followed by rapid mobilisation using a balance board. This alternative strategy can bring about full functional mobility in 94 of patients within 14 days. Verf.-Referat
