Twisted My Ankle....?
Hello guys
I just wanted to ask some guys who had twisted their ankles before
yesterday when I was walking I accidentally twisted my ankle on a bump and this morning I found out that it was swollen a bit
I'm guessing that it's not to much of a serious thing cuz i was able to walk to school fine with just minor limping and etc. ( i read that some ppl with serious sprained ankles couldn't even walk)
so i'm fortunate for that but I really wanna go back to getting exercise and stuff soon
so what should I do to heal my ankle faster? I've been doing icing and putting my foot above my heart and etc.. but anything else? and how much does it take?

You are probably right-its probably not hurt too bad. Keep icing and heating it and stay off of it as much as you can. If it does not go away soon, it might be seriously injured. It happened to my brother and he waited too long and had to have surgery, but you are probably fine.

I badly sprained my ankle about 3 weeks ago. I was in a hurry going down the stairs, lost my balance and landed on a bad side of my left foot, causing my left ankle to be stretched going on the inside. The first 48 hours were excruciating and the pain was un-believable. I've never had a serious ankle injury before.
So I immediately treated it using the RICE method. The following day, the bruising and swelling were so horrible. I found out that I got a second degree sprain and immediately panicked after that. I had a football game on that week and it been looking forward to it because I've been training for rt. I had teammates that had similar injuries and it took them months to fully recover, some of them stopped playing altogether. So I kinda had a short-term depression because I can't imagine myself not being able to run and play sports anymore.
Because I was so desperate to recover again, I contacted a lot of people that I know who do sports and asked them if they had similar injuries. One friend of mine, from the boy's football team in my university, told me about H.E.M. Ankle Rehab. I got a copy 4 days after I got injured. I immediately read and followed what was instructed and felt improvement on the first day. I was able to walk a bit, but I was in pain.
A couple of days after that, the swelling and bruising were subsid-ing significantly and on the fourth day, I was walking comfortably again. Although I've had felt a bit of stiffness, I continued doing what was instructed. My sister was surprised that I have recovered this fast. I told her about this book and was shocked on how effective the procedures were. I'm just so happy that this book was shared to me and how effective it is.
Heal your ankle fully & fast?
