Ankle Sprain Explained !

Well as we all know by now that Van Persie has torn his ankle ligament, as soon as the news started to spread that it very serious and he could be out for 2 months.

But after searching about this injury on google and after having a word with one of my family doctors I came to know RVP could be out for minimum of 6 weeks. Lets me explain to you about this Injury and how serious it can be.





This injury is divided into three grades and it is called ankle sprain.

In first degree sprain it can take min of 4 to 6 week to heal.
In second degree sprain it can take upto 4 to 8 week to heal.
And in case of third degree sprain it can take upto 6 to 12 week to heal and in case of third degree sprain sometimes surgery has to be done which can take more than 12 week to heal.

This is just the amount of time it will take to heal, once it is healed then add few more weeks to bring him back to competitive level, all in all we can say that its will be a lengthy lay off for RVP.

We can only pray that it is a 1st degree sprain and nothing more than that. Apart from feeling gutted we cannot do anything but curse international friendly.
Like Wenger say November curse, which struck again.
