Anna, M.D. (not really)

Hello, fellow bloggers! Anna here. But not today. Today I’m Dr. Anna Boehmler M.D.

I’m here to talk about what to do with a sprained ankle. Use the RICE method.

Rest your ankle. Use crutches if necessary.

Ice it to keep down the swelling . Do not ice more than 20 minutes at a time, to avoid frostbite.

Compression can also help the swelling.

Elevate by propping up your injured ankle.

This is Dr. Anna Boehmer M.D. signing off.
