Hi, I'm Overweight And 65 Years Old. I Have A

Hi, I'm overweight and 65 years old. I have a torn ligament in my ankle, been told just to rest it and it will heal itself, but I have to walk and finding it isn't healing and getting worse I've tried wearing an ankle strap but the rubbing on ther top side of the ankle irritates it.
Can you recommend something else? Thanks Sylvia
