foulé
When talking about injuries in French, the verb se fouler is commonly used to mean 'to sprain'.
For example, you might say Je me suis foulé la cheville to express 'I sprained my ankle'.
The past participle foulé then acts as an adjective to describe the sprained body part, like in une cheville foulée (a sprained ankle) or un poignet foulé (a sprained wrist).
It's important to remember the reflexive pronoun 'se' with the verb, as spraining is something you typically do to yourself.
