Hurt my ankle working out :/

[onlydonnaletters]

Hi ladies,

have been trying to shed some baby weight recently, and I was doing a exercise DVD in my living room and have managed to go over on my ankle.
I felt a pop straight away and have managed to get to the couch and taken of my trainer and sock. My boyfriend wont be home for a couple of hours, any advice would be appreciated thanks!

I believe the standard advice for a sprain, which is probably what has happened, is rest, ice, elevation, compression. So, leg up, apply cold via a bag of frozen peas or similar, (wrapped in a tea towel) and bandage or tubigrip.
