    How to use "Sprain" in context?

    A sprain, commonly referred to as a ankle sprain, is the most common ankle injury. A sprain occurs when the ligaments that keep the ankle joint from moving too far from its base are damaged. Injury may be caused by a twisting or abduction movement, jump landing, or a sudden force against the ankle joint. Symptoms of a sprain may include: swelling and bruising around the ankle, pain upon movement, and a decrease in range of motion. Treatment typically includes rest, ice, and compression. Surgery may be required if the sprain does not heal within a few weeks.
