Ankle sprains can occur for a variety of causes. For one thing, while playing ball, you might easily step incorrectly or twist it. You might also have a foot type that predisposes you to twisting your ankle, such as a high-arched cavus foot. It’s a different story why you keep spraining your ankle.
Ligaments that support your ankle are damaged and partially torn every time you have a sprained ankle. Ligaments do mend, but if they aren’t addressed right once, they will heal in a “stretched” condition, which won’t provide as much support on the outside of the ankle. This might cause you to twist more frequently.
