Protect your injury
from further damage. For example, by using a support or splint. FIRST AID FOR SPRAINED ANKLE
Rest your injury for the first two
or three days. You may need to use crutches if you’ve injured your leg and you want to remain mobile. Then reintroduce movement gradually so you don’t delay your recovery by losing muscle strength. FIRST AID FOR SPRAINED ANKLE Ice the painful area with a cold compress such as ice or a bag of frozen peas in a towel. This will help reduce swelling and bruising. Do this for 15-20 minutes every 2-3 hours. Do not apply ice directly to your skin as it can damage it. FIRST AID FOR SPRAINED ANKLE
Compress the injured area
with an elastic bandage to help limit swelling and movement. Do not leave the bandage on while you sleep. FIRST AID FOR SPRAINED ANKLE Elevate your injury by resting it above the level of your heart and keep it supported. This could mean lying on the sofa with your foot on some cushions if you’ve injured your leg. HOSPITAL EMERGENCY HOTLINES GOVERNMENT: PRIVATE: Jose B.
