Devices and methods for preventing ankle sprain injuries. To protect the ankle joint from acute ankle supination or inversion sprain injuries, the device comprises a sensing part configured to sense data of an ankle motion an analyzing part configured to analyze the data to judge whether the motion is a sprain motion and a stimulating part configured to stimulate one or more lower limb muscles against the motion in light of a result of the analyzing. The method also involves sensing data of an ankle motion analyzing the data to judge whether the motion is a sprain motion and stimulating one or more lower limb muscles against the motion if the motion is a sprain motion.
