this brings me to when the Dr. said the same about me..I was in sports in within a years time I must have snapped that same ankle several times,but years later without a brace am doing fine..no I don't play sports no more...but you should be extra careful right now your ankle is weak-there are exercises to help you make it stronger are you going to a sports medicine Dr.? if so he will tell you what exercise you could do to strengthen it...wish you luck

My daughter had a weak ankle as a youngster and had two/three visits a month to A&E, they told her to be carefull but it would give way just walking, as she got older it eased off a bit untill last week when it gave way again. Try the elastic bandages-that what the hospital gave her.
