Question:

What's an immediate remedy for a twisted ankle??

Please answer, my friend just came home with a twisted ankle, she'd fallen off the stairs!! Is there anything quick to be done?


Answers:

RICE

Rest the ankle.
Ice the ankle, but make sure you are not putting ice directly on your skin.
Compression- use an ACE bandage or brace to protect the ankle, and stay off of it!
Elevation-keep it above your heart.
