5. Ice
Ice treatments are great for ankle pain caused by a sprain or overworked muscles. The ice helps reduce swelling and allows blood to flow through more easily. This helps the body heal faster and reduces pain.
If you have injured your ankle, it is important to apply the ice pack as soon as possible. This will help reduce the swelling overall and the severity of the injury. It will also help stop the pain before it becomes severe. You can also apply ice to older injuries to help reduce the pain. The cold will numb the area and stop the pain.
You can find ice packs at many department stores and pharmacies. You can also just add ice to a plastic bag and then wrap it in a towel or place it in a sock to create a pack. Apply the ice for 20 minutes at a time as many times a day as needed.
