A member asked:

High ankle sprain hasn't healed since it was sprained 8 months ago. it only hurts if i walk on my toes, or twist the foot. what to do besides rest?

Get a second opinion: Time to get a second opinion. I don't know what you have been told by the treating doctor but if the pain continues for 8 months, it's probably a good idea to get a fresh set of eyes reevaluating the sprain.

Physical therapy.: If you have not had physical therapy, it could make all the difference for you. Ask your doctor about that as an option.
