This source focuses more on specific injuries, with a big emphasis on ankle sprains. These are one of the most common injuries in dancers and usually happen because of things like poor landings, misaligned ankles, or lack of strength and control.

What stood out here is that once an ankle is injured, it doesn’t fully return to how it was before, which makes future injuries more likely. That makes prevention really important rather than just recovery. It links back to the idea that small technique issues can build into bigger problems if they aren’t corrected early.
