Each time you sprain your ankle you pull or completely tear a ligament in your ankle. So basicaly everytime you sprain your ankle it is getting weaker and weaker each time!

Is wrist rotates completely?
Yes, the wrist has a range of motion that allows it to rotate completely in a circle. This rotation is made possible by the articulation between the radius and ulna in the forearm and the carpal bones in the hand.
Why does my sprained ankle have a lot of swelling but not a lot of pain?
If you have sprained your ankle previously you may have already completely ruptured the ligament (ATF ligament, likely). Subsequent experiences of rolling your ankle may result in rupturing blood vessels (leading to swelling/bruising) but little pain because there is no ligament left to actually sprain. That, and you are likely quite lax in the ankle joint, meaning it happens easily.
Ankle sprain - series?
Normal anatomyThe ankle joint connects the foot with the leg. The ankle joint allows the foot to move upward and downward and in an inward and outward motion. Muscles, tendons, and ligaments surround the ankle providing the stability the ankle joint needs for walking and running.Type I ankle sprainThe most common way the ankle can be injured is by an ankle sprain. When an ankle is sprained ligaments on the ankle are either stretched, partially torn or completely torn. The most common type of sprain is an inversion injury, where the foot is rotated inward. Ankle sprains can range from mild, to moderate, and severe. Type 1 ankle sprain is a mild sprain. It occurs when the ligaments have been stretched or torn minimally.Type II ankle sprainType II ankle sprain is a moderate level of sprain. It occurs when some of the fibers of the ligaments are torn completely.Type III ankle sprainType III ankle sprain is the most severe ankle sprain. It occurs when the entire ligament is torn and there is great instability of the ankle joint.Reviewed ByReview Date: 05/01/2011Linda J.

There is no difference. A sprained ankle can also be known as an ankle sprain, twisted ankle, rolled ankle, ankle ligament injury, or ankle injury. It's when one or more ligaments are torn or partially torn where they are connected to your ankle bone.
