Avoid R.I.C.E for a sprained ankle

[TruthOnly]

Taking a break and reducing mobilisation sounds like RICE. 😂

[RuaLuithnire]

After years of RICE, I’m always looking for ways to reverse all the damage done by the never ending cycle of sprained ankles (leading to one ankle being reconstructed in surgery) and RICE on repeats for years.

[carldrew]

So on the first five days… you don’t rest, ice, compress or elevate?

There is nothing wrong with relieving swelling and pain. Give the area support wrapping, rest and decrease mobility.Apply soothing rub with pain reliever and heat. Three days later, gently work on corrective exercises. You can also take pain and inflammation reliever internally. Can be tablets, tea, or juice. tumeric

Since applying ice to an injury has been shown to reduce pain, it is acceptable to cool an injured part for short periods soon after the injury occurs. There is no reason to apply ice more than six hours after you have injured yourself.
RICE technically still applies- just depends how soon after injury and what stage of recovery you are in.

Picking up a towel with my toes and walking backwards uphill helped to strengthen my sprained ankle. These exercises helped me get back to my walking program. But it was a few months before I could ride the bike without ankle pain.

[PaiKaushik]

Do the RICE thing for 5 days
And later if you become capable of walking slowly, then start during the exercises with precaution to get back the range of motion/ankle mobility

Thank you! I watched 10 videos and nobody ever says how soon to start rehab after the injury

[gstockwell]

What are the corrective exercises, I have been looking for them!🙏

[garretmorris]

So basically just add exercises to the end of the RICE treatment for the first 5 days.

Got my ankle sprained yesterday afternoon during my dance practice session. Tomorrow is my bharathanatyam competition. Have to perform a varnam... I believe i will be able to..

[betariz]

I've never seen any of these exercises, I was looking for them, I sprained my foot twice last year in a period of almost 1 month between one sprain and another

[yuukinaasahina]

I just sprained ny ankle today. Before on my college days, I used to sprain my ankle and after that I'm passing out. Sometimes I even started having seizures after passing out.

[ApolloOG-Fortnite]

WHY DIDNT I SEE THIS VIDEO EARLIER I DID THE RICE BUT THEN I STARTED TO WORK OUT wait does that still work

[bernadettefrantzen]

[anevabay]

I need to add that getting a chiropractor to put everything back in order is a must! Around here a chiropractor will fix a sprained ankle for about $30, no insurance or appointment.
