Ankle sprains are common, disabling, and costly. Timely rehabilitation may improve outcomes compared to delayed care. Our goal was to investigate the influence of time taken to begin physical rehabilitation on injury recurrence and one-year ankle-related medical care costs.

Abstract submitted to European Foot and Ankle Society Conference

While ankle-foot injuries are ubiquitous and affect ~16% of all military service-members, granularity of the evidence in this population is lacking. Therefore, the purpose of this retrospective cohort study was to characterize ankle sprains in the US military between 2009 and 2013.
