Best way to treat ankle sprain after 3 weeks??
i sprained my ankle about 3 weeks ago playing bball. it was pretty bad swelling, but went away after about a week. also took me about 2 weeks to walk around normally (i was able to hobble after about 10 min), but there is still a little swelling in the ankle. also, i have pain on the top of my ankle when i try running (sharp pain) (it feels like a tendon or something) and a duller pain if i press the side of my ankle bone. if i ice it the pain goes away for a bit. any clue on the best treatment for my ankle?? thanks.... oh and i didn't RICE cuz i've never had an ankle sprain before and didn't realize it was this bad. now i rice though.
Answers:
get a trash bucket fill it a quarter of the way with ice water and put your foot in that for 20 minutes every day. Then after that get a towel and place some marbles on it and pick them up with your toes and place them in a container. Then get a chair with wheels and roll your self around the room both front and back and see how that works for you.
