∙ 10y agoYes, you need a prescription for an ankle brace. your doctor would need to prescribe an ankle brace, and usually will order one for you. You can order one for yourself online, but those can range in prices, and it would be easier to let insurance cover the brace prescribed.
Yes it can. Ankle sprains are very common in runners. I would suggest running with an ankle brace on and alternating walking and running in your exercise routine.
That would be a brace of pheasants.
It did for me, i dont have any feeling in foot or side of leg where block was at. doctor said i have neuropithy from popiteall block. Had to have a brace made because i have no feeling in ankle, so i fall. Very scarey.
How to wrap an ankle in sports depends on the kind of injury, if it is a sprain you probably want to wrap pre-wrap around your ankle and the bottom of your foot and your ankle. Then you want to take some heavy-duty athletic tape and cover the area that you pre-wrapped, wrapping the tape around your ankle and under your foot.
It all depends. If it was minor and your ankle is sore but not hurting, I don't think you would need to wear one. If it is actually painful but not too badly, I would wear a brace if I am going to do something active (sports, jogging, etc), but not while walking around (if you can handle it). I wouldn't wear it while walking around because you need to keep the strength up. If you are having problems walking or bearing weight, I would wear an ankle support and try to get to a doctor. I'm not trying to say tough it out, you just have to figure out where you are
yes... a leg brace is like a cast
Almost - change 'to get' with 'getting' - would you mind getting my book
In general a brace would be used when a curvature of the spine is at 25-40º
The brace position prevents serious whiplash type injuries. Many persons not in the brace position would end up with broken necks.
Playing laser tag with a back brace is completely dependent on the person wearing the back brace. The back brace would not limit you from "firing" the laser, nor would it prevent you from wearing the equipment. The speed of mobility is dependent upon your comfort level and the severity of the injury requiring you to wear the back brace.
A torn ligament will effect the ankle bones negatively. An ankle bone that has its ligament torn would be considered a severe ankle sprain.
