I hurt my ankle during my basketball game but was able to stand still play on it the doctor and she said theres no break or anything. when can i play?

Pain is your clue: Ankle/foot sprains are known to last longer than other parts of body because of its weight-bearing nature on every step you take. Mild sprain may last couple of wks, but severe ones may take months, good shoes/cushions, ankle support/aircast/braces may help. Elevate when u can. Motrin/aleve may easy pain/inflammation. If painful, take it easy and allow it to heal. No pain, then play on..Good luck.

Can play: When no pain orand normal function has returned. If any doubt consult with specialist and err on side of caution.
