Better Ankle Brace? (Aircast ankle brace, lace-up ankle brace, or taping.)
Hello. I am a teenager and had just got a cast removed from my leg one week ago from playing basketball. And I was wondering which is better and will avoid hurting my ankle or foot again, Aircast ankle brace, lace-up ankle brace, or taping. I don't mind if the one of them takes too long to put on, just as long as it supports my ankle and foot very effectively. Thank you.

The Air-Cast is a splint and is not a sports brace. Lace-ups and taping loose support rapidly because they bind up your ankles. You need a hinged ankle brace like the Ultra Zoom. The Zoom has this cool technology that custom-fits to your ankle. www.ultraankle.com

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?
