Hi Welcome to ChatDoctorI have gone through your query regarding your sprained swollen ankle, and I can understand your concern. In case of any injury, if swelling and pain persists An X-ray is advised to ascertain the position if there is need of plastering so that further damage should not happen. You should go to a specialist for proper treatment Asap Turmeric powder a spoon in a cup of hot milk in BF and at bedtime helps alleviate pain and swelling faster . Rest and intake of proper nourishing diet is also helpful in early recovery. Hope this helps solves your query. Take care, All the best. Wish Get well soon.Don't hesitate to get back TF have any further query.
