Summary

The ankle joint sustains injuries particularly in athletics/sports activities at a high rate, resulting in loss of static \& dynamic balance, neuromuscular control, and diminished lower extremity's function. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of two balance-training protocols on balance, proprioception, range of motion (ROM), and pain in male athletes with chronic ankle instability (CAI). Both the balance training protocols were proven to be equally effective in improving the static \& dynamic balance, proprioception, ROM, and pain in athletes with CAI.

Conditions

  • Chronic Ankle Instability

Interventions

OTHER

star excursion balance training (SEBT)

The SEBT is aimed to be maintained the single limb stance on one leg while reaching farthest possible with the swing leg. An individual can reach farthest with the swing leg while maintaining the balance on the stance leg

OTHER

Simplified star excursion balance training (SSEBT)

It is one of the training protocols, in a simplified way, with respect to star excursion balance test. It consists a series of reaching tasks for the lower limbs in three-directions i.e., anteromedial, medial and posteromedial.
