<human>: I have sprained my ankle and want to know: How long should i rest? Should I use two ace bandages wrapped on it so that there is more compression, support and a thicker wrap? How long should i have it bandaged? How do I walk on it because I haven t got crutches but it hurts, so what can I do to walk as little as possible? How do I sleep with it do I keep it bandaged and put it on a pillow?
<bot>: Hello, I read carefully your query and understand your concern. The symptoms seem to be related to a sprained ankle. You should feel much better after 2 weeks. Once the swelling has gone down, and you can walk without pain, you can probably start exercises to build flexibility and strength. You can use anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain. Hope my answer was helpful. If you have further queries feel free to contact me again. Kind regards!  Chat Doctor.
