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?

Follow all instructions as directed! Dont try to make it heal faster but walking on it if not directed too! I had reconstructive ankle surgery on my right one and i wasnt suppose to be walking on it for 3 months two weeks later i was up and on it! Now i have so many problems and the surgery was useless! Thats my advice!

Make sure when you do decide to wear shoes - it's a good stability shoe (a running/walking shoe) with LACES and do lace them up. Make sure the shoe fits properly (go to a store and get fitted if you have to - most people are wearing the wrong size - you may be wearing the wrong width of shoe as well. which can affect stability. If you are a woman no heels - or a low heel (very low) put insoles in your shoes (take the old one out) to help with step shock
Listen to your doctor most of all.

in basic terms curious why you probably did no longer get a forged till Wednesday in case you fractured it final Sunday? regrettably in basic terms on account which you get carry of a forged to immobilize it and enable the bones heal would not propose it is going to promptly heal in one day. it is going to nonetheless be widely used to have some discomfort and swelling for weeks to return. If in spite of the incontrovertible fact that it feels like the forged is to tight or your feet look swelling or turning shade the probabilities are high the forged is in basic terms too tight (which each so often happens quickly after a sparkling forged is utilized).

Be sure your diet is rich in protein as this will help the injury heal as quickly as possible.
