What do you suggest I do with my hurty ankle?!


Question: What do you suggest I do with my hurty ankle!?
I woke up this morning with an ankle the size of a baseball!. It tingles, like it is falling asleep!. I've sprained my ankle many times in volleyball and soccer, and this feels a lot different than any sprained ankle I've had before!.

I won't have time to go to the doctor this week because I work 50-60 hours a week!.

I'm 21 years old, and healthy!.

Is there anything I can do until I can get to the doctor next week!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
