YOUR INJURY COULD BE...

Ankle Sprain

REHAB YOUR INJURY BY...
Active Rest: Use your ankle when able and pain free. If you can walk but not job, then just walk.

Icing: 15 minutes for 2 to 3 times per day, with at least one hour in-between.

Elevate: Try to lay on your back and place a pillow under your legs and ankle.

Compression: Using compression sleeves/stockings or ankle braces to protect your ankle can help re-injury.

Toe Alphabet: On your back, hold your leg up behind you knee and write the alphabet with your big toe. All this should be pain-free. If you pain progressively gets worse, you may want to get an x-ray.

Stretch: Find a step and drop your heel off the end of the step and hold the position for 15 seconds. Switch legs and stretch other side. Do this 3 times.

Strengthen: When you can walk on your foot pain free you are ready for heel raises. Stand on a flat surface and lift your body weight. Hold on to something to keep your balance. Lift with both feet 20 times and repeat for 3 sets. Once you can do this pain free, then repeat the heel lifts with one foot bent up and off the ground. After this becomes pain free, slowly work your way back to your activities.

Is it too soon to start doing tumbling, i have comp this sunday, what should i do. I can do back handsprings

  • I'm here because i'm a skateboarder

  • Hello, I have a really painful ankle injury. I can't even lift it without it hurting. I can't put weight on it either. There is no swelling. This happened when I jumped and then I fell on my foot. It mostly hurts where those round bones on both sides of your foot is. When this happened, it was really painful. I started crying, and I couldn't sleep. Please Reply!!! <3

    P.S. I also can't move my foot :(

  • skateboarding ruined my ankles

  • @Skate4life12396 well its time to go see a doctor! usually I heal an ankle within 3-6 week, but ankles take a lot longer to fully heal, it was my third sprain in less then two years so I totally screwed up my ankle muscle, its been 14 months for me and I still can't skate I probably won't

  • @Toto77777 I sprained my ankle from a tre down a 4 stair and it has been 3 months i can walk on it run on it i feel no pain but if i try to kickflip or anything it hurts like a bitch have you experienced this before?
