Best way to ease this ankle injury?!
Question: Best way to ease this ankle injury!?
my ankle hurts after probably over doing it with an extra long run recently; after a week or so the rest of the area (lower leg, foot etc) has eased, but the ankle still throbs a bit and can be painful!.
It does not really merit a visit to the docs, and a hospital trip would literally be a whole day's hanging round!.
Rest has helped but I go stir crazy and feel physically rotten without excercise, so are there any good gentle excercises, or any other tips, for this!? Will the ache just fade away with time!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

The first thing I'd do is bin your trainers and get a decent pair! You have either impacted the ankle cowl, or you have strained the Achilles, or around that area!.
Whichever, it is most likely due to rubbish trainers!
There is only a couple of low impact exercises to ease the problem!.
1!. Elevate your leg to horizontal, resting the mid calf on a cushion/stool!. Now slowly rotate the foot, keeping the calf immobilised!. 10 reps each way and rest!.
2!. Using a bean bag, draped across the toes!. Elevate the leg and immobilise as above and slowly lift and lower the toes!. 10 reps and rest!.
Don't overdo this gentle exercise at first, otherwise you'll do more damage than good!Www@Answer-Health@Com
