Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Sprains are usually minor soft tissue injuries and do not have any long term effects. These do improve on doing a hot fomentation and adequate rest. You can continue with your daily activities like running, playing and attending to gym as usual.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
