Suggest Remedy For Sprained Ankle With Swelling

Hello, I just recently sprained my ankle but it recovered about 3 days ago but I do sometimes struggle to move it side to side, I was walking today and rolled over again but this time I didn’t fall I just felt a pop noise on my ankle, I can still walk on it but I just can’t cross my legs and my ankle has also swollen again

Dear patient
there is need to restart treatment for sprained ankle. This time xray of the ankle anteroposterior and lateral views should be taken to rule out bony injury. Apply ankle binder for 3 weeks. keep limb elevated on 2 pillows. do ice packs application. Take tab zerodol sp twice a day for pain relief. If xray is abnormal please consult orthopaedic surgeon nearby your area.
