A marathon runner steps on an exposed tree root, causing a twisted ankle. After being examined, he is told the ankle is severely sprained, not broken. The ankle will probably take longer to heal than a broken bone would. Explain why.
Given that it is his ankle – describe the most likely positional movement of his ankle that resulted in his sprain.
If he happened to break a bone as well, which bone (and specific portion of that bone) was most likely broken?
In a sprain, a ligament is stretched to the point where some of the collagen fibers are torn. The ligament remains functional, and the structure and stability of the joint are not affected In a more serious incident, the entire ligament may be torn apart, simply termed a torn ligament, or the connection between the ligament and the mallelolus may be so strong that the bone breaks before the ligament. In general, a broken bone heals more quickly and effectively than a torn ligament does. A dislocation often accompanies such injuries
