Summary

Ankle sprain is frequently experienced by individuals participating in different sports activities. Ankle sprains have been shown to result in a decrease in level of physical activity and persistence of some symptoms for a long time. In this case, it is predicted that ankle sprains may affect the quality of life as well as functionality. Also, ankle sprain history may result in increased fear of movement, which may delay return to sports. This study aimed to examine the relationship between foot and ankle functionality, fear of movement and quality of life of elite athletes with a history of ankle sprain.
