exactly....
i would probably use ankle braces more for basketball, anklesprains were avoided when i wore them.....extra protection
also, probably would want to wear them, if you are planning on playing sports and your ankle is not 100%, or if you want be extra careful at the cost of mobility...

hell Andy Roddick had to wear a brace when he got hurt....

Can't use my 20s cuz they're old and no grip.....my slide and brake my ankles.
My Nike shoe I use for badminton and now tennis is worn out on the inside or so and I used it today to play tennis and my left toe nail...something happened to it and it started to bleed. Felt like the toe nail was bout to come off :beaten: :beaten:

Needa go get new shoes this weekend...

You need to cut your toenails and get some REAL court shoes.

For racquet sports you shouldn't need that much ankle support, ne?

Ankle sprains are really common in basketball, 'cause there's always the chance of stepping on another player's foot and rolling your ankle, like what happened to Q...

the last time i injured my ankle last spring, i didn't play sports for close to 2 months...bad sprain...i probably could've taken a lot of Vit C, and benefited....my bad........ :doh:

but good to know, thx.

yeah collagen is the main constituent of most living tissue....muscles, ligaments, tendons, bones, teeth, blood vessels, etc.

so by promoting collagen synthesis through enhanced fibroblast activity you can heal faster.

He must've not given himself enough time to heal or had weak ankles to begin with...

I can't say that I've ever tweaked an ankle playing tennis, but I certainly have playing b-ball and softball. :sweat:

Actually when I think about it, I think I got more road rashes from playing sports than ankle sprains, especially softball. :sweat:

LOL.

Haven't played since my soph/junior year in college... No time, hard to get a court.

Good plan! >>sharpens her samurai sword<<

Actually, I'm going through a complex. Don't we date for the purpose of finding a mate? After my marriage, I have no desire to get married again... so I suppose that defeats the whole purpose.

O wait, there is that other benefit of dating I should consider... :sweat:
