| Function score from FAAM questionnaire. Timepoint: session 1 , 6 , 12. Method of measurement: Foot and Ankle ability measure questionnaire.;VAS pain. Timepoint: session 1 , 6 , 12. Method of measurement: Pain measurement by Visual analogue scale, in this method is divided from zero to 10 and zero indicates painlessness and 10 signs of the most severe pain.;Swelling measurement. Timepoint: session 1 , 6 , 12. Method of measurement: Measurement of Ankle Joint Swelling- Using a Figure of 8 .The ankle is maintained in a neutral position for eversion and inversion while flexed to 90 degrees (if range of motion permits)the patient is in a long sitting position.the following landmarks with a skin pencil 1)tuberosity of the navicular 2) base of the 5th metatarsal 3) distal tip of the medial malleolus 4) distal tip of the lateral malleolus and 5) tibialis anterior tendon. The beginning of the tape is placed midway between the tibialis anterior tendon and lateral malleolus 2) the tape is drawn medially across the instep and placed just distal to the tuberosity of the navicular 3) pull the tape across the arch and up just proximal to the base of the 5th metatarsal and 4 ) cross the tibialis anterior tendon.Continue the tape around the ankle joint just distal to the distal tip of the medial malleolus , pull the tape across the achiHes tendon and place the tape just distal to the distal tip of the lateral malleolus and end the measurement at the start of the tape. | — |
