Suggest Treatment For Ankle Pain
Hi, I sprained my ankle a few days ago. They labeled it as a grade 3 sprain. They put me on crutches and put an ace bandage and a air cast on me. When I rest my ankle I feel a tingly sensation like pins and needles, I can barely put weight on my ankle as well when I do I feel like I m gonna throw up or I m dizzy. What could this be?! Help

Hello dear user!
I have gone through your query and understood your concerns!
Thank you for sharing them on healthcaremagic. Now I guess you have a pain only when you move and sensation when you rest. Your dizziness is due your pain. I think a combination therapy of ketoprofen (1 capsule twice a day), application of Diclofenac gel on the painful areas and massage therapy should get you pain relief.There is also good evidence about physiotherapy. For this you need expert's guidance by physical therapist.
Hope this helps
