What is the question: Pl calrify the question you want to ask. Looks like you need to see your doctor for your prolonged ankle sprain. You may need to get it Xrayed and a referral to Ortho depending on the findings. Pl apply Ace bandage, use ankle brace and heat to affected regkion along with Ibuprofen 2-3 times daily to reduce pain and inflammation. Feel better:)
