[@devrayne6770]

I dislocated my ankle and tbh with you, you should only ice for the first 48 hours for pain relief. The best thing I did was massage the ankle in a motion moving towards your leg, removing alot of the extra blood surrounding the ankle area. Sounds stupid but this method WORKS, there’s a video on it, and it removed the swelling a lot faster. Once the swelling has gone down, DON’t ice, it really doesn’t help, instead use a heating pad. This is guaranteed to relax the joint for a better recovery.

Sprained my ankle pretty badly 5 weeks ago and I’m still in very big pain when attempting to run/walk the stairs fast.

I’m glad I got it checked but I hope it’s not too serious, especially that I play lots of squash and have been off the courts for a while now.
