After ankle sprain, you can use hot water to soak your feet every day to relieve it. Ankle sprain refers to the injury of soft tissues around the joint, such as ligament, tendon and joint capsule, when the ankle exceeds its normal range of motion (excessive varus or valgus) during walking or sports.

There are medial triangular ligaments (including scaphoid ligament, calcaneus ligament, anterior talofibular ligament and calcaneus ligament) and lateral collateral ligaments (including anterior talofibular ligament, calcaneus ligament and posterior talofibular ligament) around the ankle joint. Ankle sprain generally refers to the injury of these ligaments.

Ankle sprain can be prevented, and attention should be paid to protection during exercise and peacetime exercise.
