Classify a Grade I strain/sprain
generally intact tensile strength, NO gapping, TTP
Classify a Grade III strain/sprain
complete disruption with no tensile strength, sloppy end feel with gapping/indentation
What is the treatment for a Grade I ankle sprain
conservative care, weight bearing with brace immediately
What is the treatment for a grade II ankle sprain
bracing, protected weight bearing, early rehab
What is the treatment for a Grade III ankle sprain
immobilize for 3-4 wk, rehab (rarely surgery)
