Question aobut ankle sprains?

If an ankle is sprained what is the treatment for it, like is your ankle bandaged? Also, how long will it take the ankle to heal


Answers:

Grade 1 and 2 sprains take about 4-6 weeks to truly heal up, even though you should feel mostly painfree in 2-3 wks. Ankle wraps are useless, if you want support for your ankle get an ankle brace. You would benefit from going to physical therapy to rehab your ankle to get the strength back in your ankle and re-train your balance. If you do not do this then you are left with an unstable ankle that is at risk for future injury.
