(Multiple answers possibly) the absolute refractory period prevents this from happening Sodium voltage gated ions in the area where the action potential just came from are fully activated or inactivated Sodium voltage gated ions bind to the Na+ ions, preventing them from diffusing backwards Na+ only diffuses forward in the axon 2.
