I sprained my ankle 3 months ago and I’m still not recovered it still hurts. Had an X-ray and it’s not broken which is good. I’ll try this stuff out. Thank you

Perfect timing.! I have 2 clients that are chronic ankle inverters. I'll share these moves and your link with them. Thanks Coach E. Do you have any videos for wrist sprains?

I'm 24days no injury. Had 4*sprains/strain in a wk - just walking.. slight uneven/raised pavement (wearing insoles, no-heels) & I'm over. Surprisingly my anckles don't go over in a salsa class wearing trainers/split-sole, dancing on balls of feet, to represent heels & spinning or footwork !! Funnily I'm attending a gym 'joint pain management program', two sessions of supposedly light exercises & I couldn't miss. Sprains so normal, I walk through pain but this last time, I shouted, even raised foot, paracetamol & against previous physio advice I used a tight elasticated bandage to strap my anckle, as had to walk home & Kinesiology-tape (not together), couple times - sadly no advice on box about not stretching ends of tape nor sniping corners, so tape rolled up my leg when sleeping. Video showed full anckle strapping with kinesiology-tape but I only used three strips, in case I was causing muscle weakness, as suggested by old physio but wow did it help relieve pain. Usually I ignore pain, have hot baths with epsom salts & hot waterbottle, for pain relief. Told to avoid ice as can cause more injury but your explanation makes more sense & I will follow in future. Through sprains, twice wk I included one-foot squat off box, due to weak knees/hips/calves.. Told gym instructor hobbling, left heel painful after leg-stretch calf pain - he surprised me, had me roll a small ball under foot, wow it hurt but first time in few years I touched the floor, when bent over, gob-smacked. Thought it was my back stopping my flexibility !! He also suggested I try strengthening my toes/outside foot muscles - exercise foot flat, big toe down & lift up little toes.. hardly moves !! I already try walking on heels/sole & inside/outside of foot to keep ankle flexible. Previously suggested I might have over-stretched ligament in anckles, which can't be fixed - fingers-crossed your exercises help to inprove my anckle strength. Very greatful for your simple to follow video, with explanations 👍🏻
Hi and thanks for commenting! We really appreciate you taking the time to let us know about you and your experiences. Keep working on the exercises and let us know how it goes :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
For the last two exercises, should I be 100% pain free before attempting those, or is there a degree of discomfort/pain I can work with there? Or when should I decide to attempt those?
I said in the video after a sprain you need to wait at least 30 days for a really minor sprain, or 60 days for something major, if you've been doing proper rehab along the way. If you haven't start with the first few and wait at least 30-60 days after that. You should not do the exercises if there's pain over a 1 or 2 at most out of 10 during the exercises.
Hey! That is a challenging exercise. However, you will improve with time and practice so don't worry too much if you can't get it right away. Keep us posted on your progress and let us know if you have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Would these apply to anterior ankle joint pain? I did not have any inversion or eversion injury but I am experiencing dorsiflexion and plantarflexion pain when I walk for extended durations or uneven surfaces. No lateral or medial tendon pain but it's like it's in the very front and deep to the superior talus. I am young with no x-ray or ultrasound visible injury and don't have any issues loading up with heavy weight. Just that anterior pain that builds up over extended standing and walking. It's strange, so I would really appreciate any other resources you could direct me to as podietrists can't seem to help or give me an accurate diagnosis before they jump to very invasive options. Thank you for your guidance!
Fantastic information and demonstration! I have been having my patients do the first two exercises and what I call the “curtsy lunge.” Now I will teach them the PM 1-leg squat and lateral jump & stick 👍👍👍. Thank you for sharing, I’m definitely going to buy some programs of yours to watch while I’m on vacation and read/watch on the beach 😄, not boring at all!!!. I really enjoy your informative and practically beneficial instruction.

I have hard time with short and skinny foot even with my healthy foot. Any foolproof advices to get those muscles moving?

Fix your foot intrinsics and possibly your ankle dorsiflexion. Find those vidz on our channel!
