Stick with the plan: Follow your podiatrist's or orthopedist's treatment plan. Wear any bracing or splint as instructed, and do not be on your ankle longer than the doctor has specified.

Nothing: Nothing can speed bone healing. The best thing is to prevent re-injury by following the advise of your treating orthopedic surgeon.
