>I have found this interesting question:  I am only 17 and ive sprained my ankle for about 20 times already in both ankles.

The numerous sprains you experienced in your ankles gives you a much higher chance of respraining them and also decrease overall function such as how fast you can run, jump, quick foot work, or any other activity dealing with your ankles.

I strongly recommend that you consult with your medical doctor who can refer you to a physical therapist. You need to strengthen your ligaments, and muscles. You also need rehabilitation to reprogram your brain on how to gain proprioception (balance) and fine motor control over those ankles. Over time, you’ll regain your ability.
