“Can repeated sprains damage the bones?”
I fell down from my bicycle twice and I ended up with repeated sprains on the same spot. Can this cause damage to my bones?

Won't damage the bones, but repeated sprains could elongate the sprained ligaments and cause them to become loose. This could lead to "giving out" of the joint.

It is possible.
