My ankle rolled out yesterday and now i'm in extreme pain what can i do to make it stop hurting until tuesday when i see the doctor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
see below: Put cold comptess, if no allergies, take anti-inflammatory meds like ibuprofen, elevate the extremity, avoid to much pressure on it. These can help until you see your dr. However if thrre is a lot of pain, a lot of swelling, you nay need to see a dr sooner than tuesday.
