My sprained ankle is medically called "ankle sprain" because the force is too large, which is beyond my ankle's tolerance. Generally, it is caused by the instability of touching the ground when jumping, especially when rebounding. In order to avoid spraining my ankle, I need to master the balance when jumping and know how to adjust my center of gravity.

Don't stand up forcibly when you sprain your ankle. Sit in the same place and check the sprained ankle to see if there is a fracture. Fracture mainly refers to the obvious swelling of limbs and ankles, the feeling and sound of bone friction when squeezed by hand, the terrible pain when pressed, and the obvious deformation of ankle appearance. At this time, you need to go to the hospital for examination to see if there is a fracture.

If there is no such phenomenon, but there is slight redness or blood vessel rupture, you only need to apply cold compress first, and then apply hot compress when there is no bleeding, alternately twice.

After the pain caused by redness and bleeding is slightly relieved, massage the injured part repeatedly with safflower oil and try to endure the pain. This process needs to be carried out three to five times. When massaging, it is necessary to master the strength, so that the efficacy can better enter the affected area through friction.

After the wound is properly treated, you need to rest at home for 2 or 3 days. During the rest period, you can avoid overworking your injured ankle. You can do light exercise on the bed and where there are handrails, rotate your feet clockwise and counterclockwise, kick forward and tilt forward. Adjust the amplitude and intensity according to the degree of pain.

After the swelling and pain of sprained ankle disappears, don't do too much exercise within a week, have a better rest transition period and avoid spraining ankle twice.
