"RICE
Rest
Ice
Compression
Elevate
Ice is pointless if it’s been a few days though
Failing that, amputation.. below the knee, no need to be drastic "
Don't you think amputation above the ankle would be better ? |

Below the knee is above the ankle, you want enough to be noticed but not too much that it’s overdone |

"Pretty sure it'll be just the boring elevation and rest.
Alcohol is an inflammatory so is the opposite of what you should be having, unfortunately! "
That is very unfortunate.. its been elevated so long my bum hurts  |

Sprains can be worse than breaks, especially if there’s ligament or tendons damaged, can take a week or two or a month or two, depends on the extent of the damage. |

I have a charity event in march evolving a very heavy truck... so I'm hoping it's soon rather than later... just frustrating I guess.. can't start physio till it goes down  |

Compression isn’t really recommended anymore. Rest ice and heat alternated and elevation would be better. X x |

Above the ankle allows for roller skate attachment and avoids exaggerated limpage.... |

Take some arnica it’s meant to help with a swelling. Use a topical anti inflammatory gel on the area rather than taking anti inflammatory meds. Unfortunately these things just take time to heal. Patience! Keep it moving if possibly to avoid it stiffening but don’t also overdo it. Rest between exertion.
Failing that as someone else said cut it off   |

I am sure OP that the best thing to fo is to have it checked out at your doctor's. I put a bit or arnica gel on everything but seriously just have it checked out as others already have said and good luck and hope it all feels better soon.  |

Compression is still recommended but like the ice it’s recommended earlier to stop the initial swelling (not applied too tight) so it’s too late for that too, rest, elevate… amputate |
