Doctors unsure when high ankle sprain becomes low knee sprain

High ankle sprain injuries have become inexplicably common in many sports (yes, even NASCAR) over the last few years. Known to doctors as highess ankless sprainess, the injury usually occurs high on the athlete's ankle. But, many patients and medical researchers are asking, when does a high ankle sprain become so high that it turns into a low knee sprain? "It's a fine line," said Dr Steven Jasperovich of Hahnemenn University Hospital in Philadelphia, who openly admitted to never pondering the question before three months ago. "To say exactly where a high ankle sprain becomes a low knee sprain is nearly impossible. It really depends on the person. I like to just guess." The term kneekle sprain and anknee sprain surfaced within the last year in an effort to better describe the injury, but the terminology has had difficulty catching on and going mainstream.
