Sprained my ankle 1 week ago. I am able to walk on it and even run along the trail too (with a brace)… but my ankle still hurts and is swollen. Pain is worse in the morning not the evening. Walking and running actually makes it feel better. BUT AM I DELAYING HEALING BY RUNNING ON IT? Better to not run? Seems like running stimulus would help with healing… in the wild when animals are injured they do t sit on couch with an ice pack… seems nature would have us walking and running. But so many claim that this bad? I’m so confused… if ligaments need motion to preserve range of motion and motion to pump lymph and blood fluids to them for healing then why arnt we walking and running if we are able? Why do drs tell people who could be walking or running not to?
Thanks for your video.... This is very important for me... And running people.❤
It's my pleasure
Thank you for all your great videos!
My pleasure!
You are the best, thank you very much for this video, exactly what I needed, I could see your replies under the other video and I am really grateful for your effort ❤
Subscribed, God bless you kind soul 🫶🏽✨
Thank you for the kind words and information.
I was skipping And the floor had a _pot hole_.
My right foot. Turned sideways/ *inversion* .
It's bruised. I am using ice for 10 minutes... Every hour....
And
Foot is elevated.
Thanks for sharing, and good luck with your recovery!
I have just one question, does it also apply for a mid foot sprain? I didn’t have swelling where is my ankle but a on my lateral foot which went down to my toes.
It does, but you need to first get yours checked because it sounds as if you may have broken your 5th metatarsal bone (the small bone on the outer side of your foot).
@@SportsInjuryPhysio I am really worried now :( I did an x ray and it did not show any fractures
OK, but that's good - if xray showed no fracture then it is just sprained. In that case the advice in this video is basically the same for you with regards to walking but also get advice from a physio or podiatrist who can assess it for your and prescribe exercises because the exercises will be different from ankle sprain.
@@SportsInjuryPhysio ohhh it seems like they did a false reading of my x ray!
I had an MRI and it showed avulsion fracture without significant displacement. And I’m totally out of my mind, the doctors are saying I should do mobility exercises but how can I do exercise my foot if there’s a fracture? I have to wear walking boot for 6 weeks and I wonder whether I should wait or start to do circles and other mobility exercises even now… thank you in advance for your help.
@sportsinjuryphysio please I need your response. I sprained my ankle playing football. It’s been 2weeks now. I can rotate my ankle in all directions but it hurts when I try to stretch it with my hand or when I put my weight on it in some positions
You didn't ask a question?
How long should I expect treatment to take
It will likely take about 8 weeks to regain full control and strength - make sure you work on rehab and properly strengthening your ankle - you can find some more ideas in this playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLkRW4ITRa6bAXw48EQPjY44dH24mX-Wd9.html
@@SportsInjuryPhysio Thank you so much. I feel bad that I might have to wait that long… “but knowledge is power” I love your channel even more…. For your amazing contents and for getting back to me.
I just saw rotating is not good and we should be using something to pull the toes up...I've been in recovery for 4weeks now
I have ankle and foot sprain about a week I fell down saving my grandson slipping on bowling lane well I’m not the one who fell on my knees and hurt my foot and my ankle now I’m wearing a ankle brace should I quit walking
🙈It depends on how your body reacts to walking. The rule with rehab and exercise is usually that it is OK to do as long as:
1. It only causes a slight discomfort while doing it, AND
2. It does not cause an increase in your pain and swelling that lasts for more than 24 hours
So, perhaps just reduce how much or how fast you walk if it is currently aggravating it.
@@SportsInjuryPhysio ya my question is will I make it worse by walking 🚶 I need do something I came a long way I lost 47 pds I don’t want to put any weight on right now because I know forsure i can’t jog or run
👍👍👍👍👍
I sprained my ankle about 1 and a half weeks ago and I can walk on it, but there is still a small pain on my foot. Do I need to use crutches to walk?
No - you only use crutches when it is absolutely needed and your ankle sounds like it is getting better. Just limit your walking distance and time on feet so it doesn't make the pain worse.
Broke my ankle a year ago (surgery required) , I can walk 3 miles outside, however walking barefoot indoors is still a bit of a challenge……..
If you feel that your foot isn't as strong when you are barefoot (so it needs support of the shoe) then doing rehab exercises to strengthen it can help. You can find some ideas in this video th-cam.com/video/M91D3iqdlnU/w-d-xo.html But if you wanted a more tailored plan for your ankle, this is also something our team can help with via video call.
