Return to doc: If the symptoms of an ankle sprain are not slowing improving as expected, it is usually worth re-visiting the orthopedic specialist to make sure other pathology does not exist.

Have it re-evaluated: You may benefit with physical therapy for strengthening, gait, and proprioception. Water activities may be a good option as it decreased the weight bearing pressures while you are in the water.
