NCT ID NCT07190599

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether adding mild electrical stimulation to special stretching exercises can help people who have had an ankle sprain. Sixty adults aged 18 to 30 will be split into two groups: one does stretching alone, the other does stretching with electrical stimulation. Over four weeks, researchers will measure pain, balance, strength, and movement to see if the combo works better.
