M.I.C.E. First Aid treatment for an ankle sprain
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ต.ค. 2024
- M.I.C.E. is an acronym meant to remind you how to apply first aid treatment for an ankle sprain.
The "M" stands for Motion, specifically dorsiflexion, or flexing the foot upwards. The idea is to get to this motion as quickly as possible after injury, but in a slow pain free manner, before swelling occurs, and once you get this motion, keep it.
The "I" in M.I.C.E. stands for Ice. Ice cubes in a plastic bag may be applied directly to the skin for a period of 20 minutes at a time.
For those sensitive to cold, a thin cloth may be applied between the ice and skin.
After 20 minutes, remove the ice and allow at least an hour for the skin to return to normal temperatures before applying ice again.
Never apply heat to an acute injury as this will increase bleeding and swelling.
The "C" in M.I.C.E. stands for compression. Compression is used to hold the ice bag in place over the site of injury,and after icing to help keep the swelling to a minimum and provide gentle support to the ankle.
"E" is for Elevation. Elevating an injury 12 to 18 inches above the heart significantly reduces the blood pressure to the injured tissues and decreases the amount of swelling after injury.
The next time you are faced with an ankle sprain, just M.I.C.E.

God bless you Doctor... my mother gets comfort following your suggestion
"an ankle sprain is one of the most common sport injury"
Me: Sport? haH. One word. Stairs-
True I fell down the stairs 2 sundays ago and that's how I got a sprained ankle
Yeah skating a 3stair
I was just walking down the stairs and fell a crack and hear a pop
I pop my ankle
Me:MHMMM I SEE WE PLAYING GAMES
Kate Castaneda lml I fell of the 2nd stair and went all the way to my laundry room
But its not as bad as when you sprain your ankle while doing sports my skin turned blue and its more painfull than circumcision
I have had both a sprained ankle and a broken ankle at different periods of time. 3 main bones were broken in the ankle but I can honestly say that the sprained ankle was far more painful than a broken one.
dealing with this alone, thanks for the tips!
I saw it 2023 and this is a gem
We use rice. Rest ice compression elevation.
When I injured my ankel for the first time there was a ligament tear in left foot n I was unable to feel my toes n it took me 4-5 weeks to heal but it still hurts a little when I workout on field. Try massaging, placing ice pad and heat pad simultaneously, and if possible do the red light (infrared) therapy twice a day for 10-15 mins
@Danish Shaikh Does It Still Hurt !?
