@tanisharichmond08: 🏀 Got a basketball ankle sprain? Here’s your Road To Play (RTP) milestone: regaining full weight-bearing ability without pain, usually around 2-4 weeks post-injury. Ankle sprains happen when ligaments stretch or tear, often from inward twists (inversion) or outward twists (eversion). Understanding the type of sprain helps tailor your recovery.
