Advise on a spained ankle...please?

[Katymac]

DD bashed/twisted her ankle on Thursday

We spent Friday am at A&E and "It's a simple sprain" - if it isn't better in 5 days come back

Today she still isn't putting weight on it so I rang the GP surgery - the nurse rang to say if it isn't bruised or swollen she should be putting her weight on it

She put her weight on it and now it is all bruised

What's going on?

What should I do now?

Bump...because I worry

rice, - rest, ice, compress, elevation.
flannel on affected area , bag of frozen peas on top of that remove before slin gets red, as you dont want to give her an ice burn.

oops sorry, i assume she has a cpmression bandage on it as well, rasie foot and legs up and rest on cushion and it should improve
hth...

She has an elastic bandage on.......rest?? My DD???.....I don't think she every has

Mind you she does feel she should be off school

We were back at casualty this evening

She has damaged her ligaments & heel bone

4-6 weeks with a bandage and regular pain releif

No Games/PE or dancing

Poor DD
