If there is less pain and no pain with weight bearing, the sprain is healing. The coolness of the foot though should be evaluated. A vascular assessment may be indicated. If there is continued pain, please obtain an Orthopedic referral. Watch for signs of swelling,pain and blue discoloration of the skin.
