Answer:

Grade II

Explanation:

  • When there is either a partial or complete tearing on ligaments that are responsible for supporting the joint of the ankle then it causes an ankle sprain.
  • Based on the exam findings as well as the loss in functionality of the ankle, an ankle sprain can be categorized as grade I, II or III.
  • In the given situation the 14-year-old girl has a grade II ankle sprain which is characterized by an incomplete tear of the ligaments along with moderate pain (as she rates it 5/10), moderate tenderness, loss of range of some functions, and swelling.
  • All of the characteristics of the sprain resemble those of the grade II ankle sprain tear and hence, it is characterized as a grade II ankle sprain.
