    Sprained Ankle

    I sprained my ankle about a week ago and it is still swelling but i can walk on it fine. Should i continue to walk on it and will the swelling go down?

    Ankle sprains can be quite tough. Generally, unless there is a tear, you should walk on it but not much more than that. No running until the swelling is down. If in a few more days there's still little or no improvement you may need to get it checked out just in case. RICE it and add some NSAIDS. Check out some of the posts at the top of the forum on healing...very informative.
