I spranged my ankle and the doctor took a xray and i did not have any broken bones in my foot, I was on cruches for about 3 days because it hurt to much to put presure on it. They said I had a #2 sprange and that was it. Now my ankle on the outside has been itching like when you have a cast on I was wondering does that come from the swelling going down its has been a week and 4 days into the sprange. It still hurts when i walk on uneven payment and my ankle has no control when I step on a rock it rolls real easy. I was also wondering about how long does it take to heal. The doc said that it will take a month to run on it. I can not get around all of the uneven surfaces and rocks because I am deployed to Iraq. Oh yeah it is really still tender around my outer part of my ankle and the bruising is starting to go away. I still can not walk right like down the steps I have to go sideways. Since I spranged my ankle is it more easy to roll it again in the future. Do doctors usually do mri when you sprange your ankle to tell if you torn a ligament? What exactly happens when you sprange your ankle?
