Calcaneofibular Ligament SprainPositive Tests
Calcaneofibular Ligament SprainPositive Tests
MI: Passive Inversion of the heel in dorsiflexion is painful (this is the major indicator)
AUX: Passive Dorsiflexion of the ankle is painful and often limited
AUX: Passive Plantarflexion of the ankle is painful and often limited
AUX: Heat Test is positive. The injured ankle is often hot or at least warmer then the other one 26
