Objectives The purpose of this study is to investigate and report the effectiveness of Hominis Placenta pharmacopuncture treatment for chronic ankle sprain. Methods 2 patients are treated at Dept. of Korean Medicine, the Armed Forces Busan Hospital, diagnosed as thinning of anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL), suggestive of partial tear and anterior tibiofibular ligament partial tear. They are treated with Hominis Placenta pharmacopuncture. Each cases are measured and assessed by ankle hindfoot scale (AHS), visual analgue scale (VAS), cumberland ankle instability tool (CAIT) scores.

Objectives The aim of this review is to analyze the study tendency in papers related with ankle sprain which are published in Korea. Methods I searched the OASIS and checked relevant Korean journals. I classified the papers by field of study, publish date, main treatment, evaluation methods and analysed the study tendency. Results 1. There are 9 case studies, 4 comparative effectiveness studies, 11 controlled studies. 2. The paper was published almost every year for more than one. 3. Treatment tool such as acupuncture, pharmacopuncture, acupotomy, heating-conduction acupuncture, etc. was used. 4. The most commonly used evaluation method is VAS (Visual Analog Scale) and AHS (Ankle-Hindfoot scale). Conclusions These results suggest that Korean medical treatment on the ankle sprain can be useful as cure medicine, but there are not sufficient evidence based papers, so there should be further studies.

Results : 1. The pain threshold score and the VAS score showed statistical significant improvement after 1st treatment. 2. The pain threshold score and the VAS score showed improvement but had no statistical significance after 2nd treatment. 3. The difference between left and right were not statistical significant in pain threshold score and VAS score. Conclusions : Heating-conduction acupuncture therapy has clinical effects of pain reduction on patient with anterior talofibular ligament injury induced by acute ankle sprain.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the therapeutic effect of acupuncture treatment of acute ankle sprain combined with positional release therapy. Methods: A prospective randomized single blind study between positional release group and knee flexed supine position group was conducted. Patients with ankle sprain within 48 hours were evaluated by Ankle injury grade chart(AIGC). In group A, positional release therapy was combined with acupuncture, whereas in group B, acupuncture was conducted in knee flexed supine position. The treatment was planned for a duration of 1 week, 3times a week. In AIGC scores, VAS, weight bearing time and weight bearing time in blind were followed up and compared. Results and Conclusion: The VAS score decreased in both group. Weight bearing time increased in group B, weight bearing time in blind increased in group A. Comparing the therapeutic effect of each group, group A had significant effectiveness in weight bearing time in blind. So we may conclude that Acupuncture treatment combined with positional release therapy is effective and recommandable at early stage of ankle sprain.

Background: In most human lives, 80 percent have problems with the ankle and can be solved with a treatment that is objective in proper assessment. Discrepacts in the ankle are also associated with walking patterns and affect hip and knee joints. An evaluation of hip flexion and extensor muscles was performed to check the strength of hip joints after ankle sprain patients application of arthesis. Methods: In the hospital in Bucheon, 20 outpatients who visited the hospital for treatment with ankle sprain were tested with 10 male and 10 female patients. The criteria for selection of the study subjects were randomly divided into those with joint movement techniques applied to the ankle joints and those with conservative physical therapy. Results: In applying arthrography and preservation physical therapy to patients with ankle sprain, a difference in muscle strength between hip flexion and extensor was noted in post-evaluation comparisons. There were significant differences in the assessment of walking speed and walking time between the two counties in the gait analysis assessment (p<.05). Conclusion: Studies have shown that applying arthrography to people with ankle sprain has a greater therapeutic effect than using conservative physical therapy.

목적: 성장기 태권도 선수가 호소하는 만성 통증의 유형과 원인을 분석하고 이에 대한 선수 및 지도자의 인식 조사와 함께 만성 통증을 줄일 수 있는 방법을 모색해 보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2006년 3월부터 2007년 6월까지 1년 4개월 동안 광주광역시의 초, 중, 고교 태권도 선수 210명과 지도자 12명을 조사하였다. 진단은 이학적 검사와 단순 방사선 촬영, MRI 등을 통해 이루어졌다. 결과: 조사 대상 선수 210명 중 만성 통증을 겪은 선수는 162명(77.1%)이였으며 세 부위의 만성 통증을 겪은 선수는 19명(11.7%), 두 부위는 74명(45.7%), 한 부위는 69명(42.6%)이였다. 162명의 만성 통증 274예에서 손상 부위로는 족부, 족관절부가 145예(52.9%)로 가장 많았고 수부, 수근관절부 47예(17.2%), 슬관절부 38예(13.9%), 고관절부 25예(9.1%), 요추부 19예(6.9%)였다. 만성 통증의 손상 유형으로는 족부의 좌상(타박상)이 103예로 가장 많았고 다음으로 족관절부 염좌 40예, 수부, 수근관절부 좌상 28예 등이었으며 이러한 만성 통증을 유발하는 손상 원인으로는 겨루기 연습 손상이 가장 많았고, 다음으로 무리한 훈련이었으며, 경기 손상 등이 있었다. 결론: 성장기 태권도 선수들에게 만성 통증이 흔히 있었고 족부, 족관절부 통증이 많았으며 손상 유형으로는 좌상과 염좌가 많았다. 손상 원인으로는 겨루기 연습 손상이 가장 많았으며 만성 통증으로의 이행은 무리한 훈련과 잦은 경기가 큰 원인이 되고 있었다. 이러한 선수들의 손상을 예방하고 치료하기 위한 다각적인 노력이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
