Sprained Ankle Rehab?!
Question:
Sprained Ankle Rehab?
I sprained my ankle on Sunday, but the swelling has gone down a lot. I started walking on it with an ACE bandage wrapped around the ankle, but I was wondering if this is bad? I didn't go to the doctor, because the swelling went down fairly quickly (1-2 days). I don't have access to crutches so I've kinda been walking around on the heel of my sore foot. Walking on it isn't painful, but my foot ends up swollen at the end of the day. Is walking on it a bad idea or am I okay to walk on it as long as it doesn't hurt?
Answers:
If you have a sprained ankle i would rest it, and probebly see an Orthopedic Doctor for this issue. You may have something else going on that could be worse. get an Xray and he will decide what you need after that
