Question:

I have sprained my ankle and need to know how tight to wrap the ace bandage. Help?

Answers:

Your better bet would be to get an ankle brace that fits on under your shoe. Ice for the first 24 hours, moist heat after that, & stay off of it, even if you do get a brace, for the first 2 days or so. An ace just keeps it warm, it really doesn't keep you from reinjuring it if you walk on it.
