Answer 2

Spraining your ankle can be beneficial in the long run. It builds up a tolerance the more it is sprained. I sprained a my ankle a couple of years ago and it has gotten stronger, and is not swollen, but bigger than my other ankle.

It is painful at the time of the injury and I was unable to play basketball for about a month, but I have not had trouble with it since.

Answer 3

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?

Answer 4

I've sprained my ankle about 5 times, my right one. I have never sprained my left one. It hurt extremely bad the first time I sprained it, but since then it hurt less and less each time. I would highly discourage you from doing it on purpose, but I guess it does make it less severe next time. But look at Grant Hill's ankle... sprained a billion times, and still not strong.

Answer 5

Answer 7

NO hell no. i sprained my ankle playing ball when i as 14, the last 4 years i have torn luguments, sprained and twisted it because of that one time, its weak as hell.

I sereously recomend you dont do it, but if your stupid enough to do it
1. use glucosomine sulphate tablets, they strengthen joints and liguments.
2 dont rush back into training, i did and now my anlke is lik pencil led.
3 wait till the offseason (duh!)
