Suggest Treatment For Sprained Ankle
I badly sprained my ankle on Sunday. It had an X-ray and he said it wasn't broken. I have grade 2 ligament damage. I have been trying to exercise it as advised. Everytime I walk on it, I feel sick. My gate is improving slowly but is still very limited. I have bruising and swelling all over my foot and ankle but also halfway up my shin. Is feeling so sick normal?

Dear sir /madam
ligament sprain for the inflammation to settle down and to proceed for healing takes 3 weeks from onset of injury,
It is recommended to elevate your limb under pillow, ice fomentation, give rest and Creepe bandage support.
Yes ankle sprain has such morbidity,
Which usually settles down with time.
