FIX-KD-40

Ankle sprain in children

Ankle sprain occurs because of overstretching of ligaments, which connect the bones in the ankle. Usually, when the ankle is sprained, the bleeding and swelling around the ankle joint occur. Ankle sprain usually happens when there is a sudden movement or twist. These movements are more likely to happen when a child is running, jumping or quickly changing direction e.g. in sport. Unfortunately, once a sprained ankle has a much higher risk of reinjury, which is why prevention is so important. Our paediatric ankle brace FIX-KD-40 is ideal for this purpose.

Purpose of use

• ankle strains or sprains
• as an protection after cast immobilization (after fractures, raptures, sprains, strains)
• chronic Ankle Instability
• acute or Chronic Ankle Injury
• prophylactically in sport
