How to treat a sprained ankle
- Protect the sprained ankle.
This is pretty simple, but incredibly common for people to forget. Do not walk on the sprained ankle, and protect it from further contact by immobilization with a splint or brace. - REST.
Take a few days off of his feet. You do not have to be down, but make sure the ankle is being rested. Possible exercises you can do are swimming and cycling. - ICE.
This can be done several times a day for 15-20 minutes. This will prevent the swelling to a minimum. Ice no more than 20 minutes will do more harm than good. For more information about an icing injuries it need not be all the time, but especially when the foot is not high, it would be advisable. A simple Ace wrap is fine for light compression. - RAISE.
This will also help minimize the inflammation that takes place. A few pillows under the ankle should be fine for getting enough leg while keeping the injured limb comfortable. - Seek professional help.
Although most injuries ankle are simple and heal naturally for a short period of time, some injuries are more serious and may require more aggressive treatment.
Tips:
- Never ice for more than 20 minutes.
Many people think that more is better, but this is not true! Weather ice should be maximum 20 minutes every few hours. Be creative with icing his ankle sprain.
A bag of frozen corn or peas makes a big bag of ice - and is reusable and edible. - Compression bandages should be snug, not tight.
If too tight, circulation will be affected, and slowed the healing process.
