The foot is also a very important part of the human body, but sometimes it will cause ankle sprain because of improper force or unstable walking. What should I do if my ankle sprains and swells in my life? Today, Bian Xiao will introduce it to you!
What should I do if my ankle sprain is swollen?
Swelling of ankle sprain is generally caused by local swelling of joint cavity and blood circulation problems after ankle sprain. When this happens, everyone should avoid some strenuous exercise.
At the same time, after the sprained ankle is swollen, everyone should apply cold compress first, which can relieve the pain in the leg. After 24 hours, everyone can use hot compress to improve blood circulation.
If the leg still hurts after cold compress and hot compress, and the edema has not disappeared, everyone can use drugs for treatment. However, when taking medicine, we should be careful not to use some externally applied drugs to promote blood circulation, which will cause more bleeding and swelling.
When ankle sprains, everyone should put some calcium-containing food and bean products on the chair, which will help the recovery of feet, eat less spicy food, don't drink and smoke, and keep enough sleep time from time to time. After the leg swelling disappears, you can do some exercise indoors appropriately, which is more conducive to the recovery of your ankle.
