Hurt foot: jumped up, landed on it rolled. swollen and badly bruised, barely any pain. walking fine w out brace. no dr yet. how long before exercise?

6-8 weeks: 6 to 8 weeks to be safe, but you can swim or bicycle in the meantime. Walking as tolerated. No jogging until pain and swelling are gone. Remember RICE, a mnemonic for rest, ice, elevation, and compression with an ACE bandage for sprains. If pain increases or pain near outer side below knee, see your PC doctor for exam.
