Pain post sprain: One of the biggest problems with ankle sprains is undertreatment. The typical scenario is a pt who is seen in the er, told its not broken, here's and ace bandage and it'll be ok in a few days to a week. The problem is that there are varying degrees of damage from an ankle sprain. Mild injuries just stretching the ligaments do fine, while more severe injuries leave the ankle unstable. Get it eval.
