Best bearing to glibness this ankle injury?
my ankle hurts after probably over doing it with an extra long run recently; after a week or so the rest of the nouns (lower leg, foot etc) has eased, but the ankle still throbs a bit and can be tender.
It does not really merit a visit to the docs, and a hospital trip would literally be a whole day's slack round.
Rest has helped but I move about stir crazy and feel physically rotten without excercise, so are here any good gentle excercises, or any other tips, for this? Will the hurting just fade away near time?
Answer: Get yourself a tube of Deep Heat rub. Mentholatum Deep Heat Rub is a pain-killing cream which is rapidly absorbed by the skin and produces soft warmth
The warmth of product help stimulate circulation, relax stiffness and get oxygen back into constricted, painful tissues and muscles.
It's immensely effective earlier and after sport or to relieve pain. Hot treatment via products like Deep Heat is also really effective as a follow up to cold treatment, which is recommended for sports and other activity injuries. Apply the cold treatment after, when the swelling and inflammation has subsided, apply the hot treatment..
The first thing I'd do is bin your trainers and receive a decent pair! You hold either impacted the ankle cowl, or you have strained the Achilles, or around that nouns.
Whichever, it is most likely due to rubbish trainers!
There is only a couple of low impact exercises to help the problem.
1. Elevate your leg to horizontal, resting the mid calf on a cushion/stool. Now slowly rotate the foot, keeping the calf immobilised. 10 reps each way and rest.
2. Using a bean shoulder bag, draped across the toes. Elevate the leg and immobilise as above and slowly lift and lower the toes. 10 reps and rest.
Don't overdo this gentle exercise at first, otherwise you'll do more lay waste to than good!.
Read and apply http://www.helium.com/tm/148271 to fix it.
The ache will fade if you do nought to aggravate it for the rest of your life. If you want to continue exercising and not suffer after fixing the damaged parts is your only substitute..
Keep your foot elevated and move your foot in a circular motion, it will help but thats what i have to do when i hurt my ankle.
