Brief Summary
Chronic ankle instability is characterized by a patient's being more than 12 months removed from the initial LAS and exhibiting a propensity for recurrent ankle sprains, frequent episodes or perceptions of the ankle giving way, and persistent symptoms such as pain, swelling, limited motion, weakness, and diminished self-reported function. This study will Compare Resistance Training with and without Plyometric exercises on Athletes with Chronic Ankle instability and changes will be recorded using different methods and tools. Patients will be randomly allocated into two different groups. Group A will be treated with resistance training and Group B will be treated with resistance training along with plyometric exercises . Participants will complete clinician-oriented tests. Participants of both groups will be evaluated before and after the application of respective interventions at the end of 8th week. Data will be analysed.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * A history of at least 1 substantial ankle sprain with associated inflammatory symptoms and at least 1 interrupted day of desired physical activity, multiple episodes of the ankle "giving way," recurrent sprain, and "feelings of instability" in the 6 months before the study. Patients scoring the FAAM, there should be two scores, less than the ADL subscale and the Sports subscale, 20/21 items and 7/8 items must be completed, respectively * If both ankles qualified, the ankle with the highest score (i.e. the most severely affected ankle) was considered the involved limb. Exclusion Criteria: * Volunteers were excluded if they had sustained an acute lower extremity injury in the 3 months before the study * Having participated in formal rehabilitation in the 3 months before the study * Having a history of lower extremity surgery or fracture that required alignment in the involved limb * Having any diagnosed neurologic dysfunction, such as multiple sclerosis, Parkinson disease, or head injury.
