Ian Winson, Foot and Ankle Surgeon. and the Past President of the European Foot and Ankle Society and BOA Past President told OrthopaedicsAndTrauma.com : "I use this brace, after an initial 72 hour period of RICE, on athletes with anterior talofibular ligament injury. I use the Aircast CryoCuff for the icing as they are more efficient and safer than a bag of frozen peas.
