Background Ankle sprains are highly prevalent with high risk of recurrence. Consequently, there are a significant number of research reports examining strategies for treating and preventing acute and recurrent sprains (otherwise known as chronic ankle instability (CAI)), with a coinciding proliferation of review articles summarising these reports. Objective To provide a systematic overview of the systematic reviews evaluating treatment strategies for acute ankle sprain and CAI. Design Overview…

An umbrella review of systematic reviews to collect the most effective evidence-based treatments and to point out the state-of-the-art management for this injury found evidence supporting the effectiveness of non-surgical treatment in managing acute ankle sprain.
Conservative Treatment for Acute Ankle Sprain: A Systematic Review
- MedicineJournal of clinical medicine

Prognostic of Recurrence of Ankle Sprain Injury in Athletes who Return to Sports Early
- MedicineeJournal Kedokteran Indonesia

It was found that recurrent ankle sprains incidence rate was 33%, and neuromuscular training significantly reduced ankle sprain recurrence rates with relative risk 0.63, and the healing time to the pre-injury state reached 93.8 ± 1.2 days for conventional therapy and 97.6±1.5 days for surgical procedure.

Overall taping, bracing and neuromuscular training were all effective for the prevention of ankle-sprain recurrences and evidence suggests this overall effect is due to a strong preventive effect in previously injured athletes and that any effect on fresh ankle sprains is either non-existent or very low.

The available evidence is insufficient to rule out the possibility that there is an optimal dosage schedule for ultrasound therapy that may be of benefit, and the potential treatment effects of ultrasound appear to be generally small and probably of limited clinical importance, especially in the context of the short-term recovery period in most people with these injuries.
