Ankle rehab plan for a new ankle sprain
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial studies a rehabilitation approach to improve outcomes for a fresh ankle sprain (Grade I–III) started within the first 72 hours. It may help you recover faster and better, but it also has safety exclusions related to seizures and certain implanted devices.
