Sprained Ankle

Asked for Female, 41 years

I sprained my ankle while jogging. I applied some deep heat solution and went with my day's activities. Now it is starting to swell up and it got me worried. Should I take X-Ray? If not kindly tell me what to do.

Dear Patient,

Yes, you can consider an Xray if the pain and swelling are there and if you have difficulty placing your feet down. You can visit an ORTHOpedic with your reports.
Meanwhile soak your feet in warm water n salt. Apply fastum gel to the affected parts and take tablet brexin twice a day. Avoid putting undue weight/ doing excess movements using that foot.
