Rub some linement on it and wrap it up and see how it feels like in the morning. Keep it warm so it doesn't tighten up too bad. And stop trying to play a game you don't know how to play.
so i was ballin on some es on the courts friday early PM and went up for a rebound and landed on some dudes foot. immediately felt that it was super serious as I have had some bad sprains before. 2 mins after it was already swelling up pretty damn big. later that night, it turned to the size of a baseball, no joke. the swelling has gone down from ice/elevation/compression but it's turning blue and black. pretty typical. can't walk without crutches, but can put LIMITED pressure on it.
however, do i need to visit the doctors to take x-rays on ligaments or anything or should i man up and not worry about it?

please dude, i get respect on the courts. double team'd, if not, triple team'd.
before the game starts, "guard that guy he's the best player on the team".
i on teams out here... and i'd on you.
put some ointment on it and rub it in
no im not talkin about sperm mate
Rub some ligament on it, wrap it up, put it in the microwave for 45 seconds. If you still have an ankle tomorrow, stop playing a game you don't know how to play
Too bad your ankle can't handle your own .
your ankle would have done the same if it landed on a foot after it went up a foot in the air
Wow you jumped a whole foot in the air?
Unless you're 5ft 11.5 like me and can dunk with 2 hands I don't care..my vert was 35 at its best I would dunk on you and put my nuts in your mouth
RICE
THE MOST IMPORTANT INITIAL MANAGEMENT OF A SPRAIN IS,
* R - rest
* I - ice
* C - compression
* E - elevation
Did you break his face and use his ligaments as an ace bandage? Get in that ass Steve Irwin.
I'll go with PRINCE
In many cases you can first use the PRINCE approach to treat your ankle. PRINCE stands for protection, rest, ice, NSAIDs (pain relievers), compression, and elevation. Treating a sprained ankle may help prevent ongoing ankle problems.
The first post of this thread is eerily remniscent of the 'injury question' thread that was recently bumped. Horry for 3 didn't really injure his knuckle in a fight, he just wanted us to think that. Similarly, I don't think NorCal injured his ankle playing basketball.
I've sprained my ankle maybe 5 different times playing basketball. Always end up landing on someone's foot. I ed my knee up bad last year when I collided into some dude going for steal or a block, I forget. But damn, it felt like my whole leg snapped backwards and that was the worse pain I was ever in.
Crutches are a too man.
But it, it's the sport I love to play and some ty small injury could never keep me away from it. I've been elbowed in the face and been gushing blood, kept playing, punched in the throat and kept playing.
Basketball is just too damn awesome.
I sprained my lower muscle by putting it in a milk carton too much, does anybody have any acryonms to help me?
STFU.
Pretty self-explanatory man.
Avoid wrapping or compressing the joint. Often times, wrapping the injured joint can prevent excess fluid from draining from the area, prolonging inflammation and discomfort. I'd elevate it slightly during the night.
Good luck.
Not nice man, not nice at all.
I wish I was joking...
Plus, who'd lie about a sprained ankle?
WebMD says it's good to compress. I'm gonna go with that and not your advice.
Sounds exactly like what happened the three times I've torn ankle ligaments. As a vet of 34 sprains and 3 torn ligament episodes, get it checked out or you'll end up with ty ankles like mine.
If it is a torn ligament (and it sure sounds like it is), you'll probably need a cast, and the more you move it at this stage the worse it will heal (scar tissue), and the weaker and less flexible it will be in the future.
go see a chinese acupuncture, he would give it the twist of fate, and put it back in its original form
Your randomness never ceases to amaze me...
I've never gone to the doctor for a sprained ankle and I've had some real major sprains. I've got bad ones but I've always used good old fashioned rub downs and keeping it warm and give it time to heal. Good luck.
wat i do is goto them chinese grocery stores, im pretty sure they sell them green oitment oils.....you only need to pour a little of it over the bruise area, rub or massage it hard few times a day....bandage it and try not to put weight on it....it will decrease the bruising....
next time when balling, ask that person if any of them graduated from the school of ankler breakers bruce lee bowen woaahhh
So basically somebody crossed your ass up and your ankles got broke is the real story....
