What reason is an ankle swollen

summary

I walked carelessly last week and sprained my ankle. I immediately called my younger brother who was a doctor. He immediately taught me how to treat and care for myself. Now my swelling has been gradually reduced and my pain has been reduced. Let's take a look at the following.

What reason is an ankle swollen

First: he said that it's best to walk as little as possible within 48 hours after the sprain and apply ice to the ankle (if there is no ice, soak in cold water).

Second: after 48 hours, use warm water to soak, then apply Huoluo oil, rub it until it is hot, rub it repeatedly, 3-4 times a day.

Third: if you get better, you can exercise properly, but avoid intense exercise. Sprained ankles are more likely to be injured again, so you should pay more attention to protect your ankles in the future.

matters needing attention

You go to the orthopedic department of the hospital to have a look, you can consider doing a color Doppler ultrasound examination of lower extremity blood vessels, and then treat them after finding out the cause.
