Sprained ankle
(3 discussions)
I sprained my ankel a week ago. I’ve had a little pain and swelling since then. Today I noticed pain in my calf area and tingling on the bottom of my foot. I have an appointment with my doctor in a week, should I see someone sooner? Is there something I can do besides RICE and ibuprofen to get some relief?

If you are already doing the common sense RICE and Ibuprofen, then see someone sooner if you are concerned.
