Question:

How you de-swollen a swollen ankle?

my ankle is very swollen and i don't know how to make it better. i dont want to go to the doctors either. i tried icy hot, but it doesnt seem to be working.


Answers:

1st get the ankle wrapped in an ace bandage ...then alternate heat and cold with 15 mins of each one for 2 hours before you go to bed and first thing in the morning and lastly get that ankle up above your heart so the blood flows back and away from the swelling. a pillow at the foot of your bed should do it. ....and try to stay off of it as much as possible for 3 or 4 days
