I sprained my ankle, but can't walk on it?

I am a retired RN and worked in an acute care clinic that specialized in orthopedic injuries. You rest a sprained ankle for a day or 2 and then YES you need to gently walk on it. These other answers are wrong.

You will actually get more long-term problems from immobilizing it.

I was going to say: probably not too serious until I saw your update. Oh shoot that really sucks I'm so sorry?. Can't believe you had to walk 2 miles on a friggin broken ankle.

You're brave! Really hope you feel better soon:).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
