Abstract
Objective Chronic ankle instability (CAI) is reported after ankle sprain. Our aim was to assess differences in mechanical pain sensitivity of lower extremity nerve trunks and physical performance between amateur soccer players with and without CAI. Design A cross-sectional case-control study. Setting Amateur soccer teams. Participants Fifty-five male soccer players, 28 with and 27 without CAI participated. Main outcome measures The perceived instability was assessed with the Cumberland Ankle Instability Tool (CAIT). Pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) on the common peroneal and tibialis nerve trunks, vertical jump, lateral step-down test and joint position sense of the knee were assessed by a blinded assessor. Results Soccer players with CAI showed lower PPTs over the common peroneal nerve than those without CAI (between-groups mean difference: 1.0?±?0.8?kg/cm2, P??0.310]) were found. PPT over the common peroneal nerve exhibited a significant moderate correlation with the CAIT score (r?=?0.528, P?<?0.001). Conclusion Amateur soccer players with CAI have higher pressure pain sensitivity over the common peroneal nerve but exhibit similar physical performance to amateur soccer players without CAI.
