sprain my ankle 2 weeks ago...
Friday, August 01, 2008
Grade I ankle sprains are usually minor, and can heal in 2-3 weeks. They involve little tissue damage, and usually have little to no swelling. A few days of rest, and a week or two of rehabilitation exercises is usually sufficient for full recovery.
Grade II sprains are the most common ankle sprains, and they have the most varying recovery time. The tissue damage is not severe, however it is significant. And the initial care, espeically rest, will determine how long recovery will take. If all other factors are favorable, Grade II sprains should take 4-6 weeks to heal.
Ankle sprain recovery for third degree sprains takes significantly loner, and may require surgery if sprains become a chronic problem. It can take 8-12 weeks to fully recover from a third degree ankle sprain.
my sprain should be grade II... looks like i've got another 2 to 4 weeks to recover
