ankle problem

[the tkder]

my ankle got messed up the othr daye when i was sparring and i did a 45 degree roundhouse kick and it didnt go deep enough, so my ankle bent bakwards sorta. nothin serious, juss rele hurts. i just now took my little rubber cast thingi off.

 

yea.. so i was wondering weather there are any exercises to make your ankles stronger so this wont happen in the future, and tell me how to do them. i also asked my grandpa since hese like a rele good doctor and hese like " just wait till it heals and it will become even stronger then b4". so basically wut hese sayin is da more u damage a bone the stronger it gets?? can any one clarify this?? and also the exercise thing.(pleaseopleaeoplease)

 

 

 

im 14 years old just in case dat makes a diffrence.

Not going to go against what a doctor says but do have a few suggestions.

 

1 Wait - injuries need time to heal

 

2 Be flexable- when you are good to go be sure to do plenty of streching in that area.

 

3 Go easy- Be sure to take it easy at first. Start with easy stretching and then basic and simple techniques at first.

 

4 Balance- When you are ready to get back into the swing of things and wish to start strengthening your ankle start with balance exercises.

 

standing on one foot and leaning forward to back side to side , just enough to feel pressure on the lower leg will begin to build strength in ankle area.

 

There are many other exercises but they may be a bit advanced if your injury is not healed.

 

REMEBER build the muscles around the ankle will help reduce the risk of injury BUT focus on flexable joints that is KEY
