The ligaments of the ankle are strong bands of connective tissue that connect bones to each other, providing stability and support to the joint. The main ligaments include the anterior talofibular ligament, calcaneofibular ligament, and posterior talofibular ligament on the outer side, and the deltoid ligament on the inner side. These ligaments help prevent excessive movement and protect the ankle from injuries. Injuries to the ankle ligaments, such as sprains, often occur during activities that involve twisting or rolling the ankle. Proper strength and flexibility exercises can help maintain ligament health and prevent injuries. Understanding the role of these ligaments is essential for athletes and individuals engaged in physical activities.
