Thomas San Giovanni, Orthopedic Surgeon, at Miami Orthopedics and Sports Medicine Institute, says when patients have chronic pain after an ankle sprain, he would have to evaluate the source of that pain. According to him, the pain would be there because the ligament may not have healed at the proper tension, so that ligament may be elongated or over stretched.
He also explains they often see that the injury was more than just a ligament tear and there could be a small split tear in the tendon, which may persist in terms of pain.
