Lateral Ankle Sprain
DC Consult Editorial Staff - 7/17/2008
New evidence-based prevention,
diagnosis, and treatment overviews of Lateral Ankle Sprain
(LAS) have been added to the list of clinical conditions
available on DCConsult. The prevention overview discusses
the evidence that exists for the influence that
proprioceptive faults, previous history, structural faults,
muscular faults and other factors have in LAS. Among the
conservative treatments and level of evidence discussed are
functional treatment, manipulation/mobilization, comfrey
root, low level laser therapy, ultrasound, electrical muscle
stimulation and hyperbaric oxygen therapy; the medical
treatments of NSAIDs and surgery are also discussed by
evidence. This newest evidence-based review (EBR) was
completed courtesy of the Parker College of Chiropractic
Research Institute. [http://www.dcconsult.com/ClinicalConditions.html?CR_ID=52]
