Chronic Ankle Pain? When a Sprain is More Than Just a Sprain

According to the American College of Sports Medicine, more than 25,000 Americans suffer an ankle sprain on a daily basis, and those 9 million collective ankle rolls make up for half of all sports injuries annually.

Wearing the Right Shoes: Why It Matters

Most people know they should wear good, supportive shoes. It’s something their parents probably told them as children, and their doctors never seem to get tired of reminding them of it.
