Ligament Sprain Treatment
Have you recently suffered a ligament sprain?
A ligament sprain can be extremely frustrating, especially if it prevents you from doing the things you love. At our Covent Garden clinic we use a variety of treatments to treat ligament injuries, that do not require surgery or medications. Our expert practitioners have years of experience helping people in London recover from ligament sprains and getting back to sport or everyday activity.
Understanding Ligament sprains
If you have sprained a Ligament you will normally experience pain at the location of the ligament, reduced range of motion, bruising, swelling, redness and sometimes joint instability.
At our Covent Garden clinic we combine a variety of our treatments to stimulate ligament repair, reduce pain and increase blood flow to the area.
As the Ligament recovers we will begin our Exercise rehabilitation programs. These are focussed on improving the range of motion of the joint, improving your strength and also stability. This will help prevent future re-injury.
What caused my ligament sprain?
It is very difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of your Ligament sprain, without a physical examination. However, normally there are a number of contributing factors that could have caused your Ligament sprain. Please see below a possible list of causes:
Overuse of the affected joint
Previous injury to the area
Trauma to the joint from a fall or impact
Muscular Imbalances around the affected joint
Being overweight
Other healthcare conditions
