What can you see in the clip?

The ankle is stabilized by strong collagen bands (ligaments), a capsule and an active muscular system. They restrict final and unwanted movements and give the body a "sense of position" (proprioception). The clip places this within “Sprained ankle” so it is easier to understand what is happening in the area, not only where symptoms are felt.
