Your suggestions are priceless! Six months ago, after a heavy fall on my elbow, I was in terrible pain with my shoulder. Your videos showed me how to find out what I have, and which exercises to do... no pain at all, full functioning shoulder again. WOW! Now I sprained my ankle, around 7 days of swollen ankle, could hardly walk, incredible pain. Watched last night this video and some more of your 'ankle' videos, exercised and massaged my ankle as suggested. Result: this morning the swelling is almost gone, and I still do limp a little bit, nevertheless... I am walking without making faces because of too much pain, just with an elastic bandage. Thank you, thank you, thank you, for sharing your knowledge with us. UPDATE: got an ankle brace (the one with the ties) and a pair of crutches on craigslist for$5. Did a lot of your exercises and walked my dog still twice a day (for 3 days with one crutch), always focusing on how I walk in order to strengthen my ankle. End of week 3: For the past 2 days I walk without bandages, braces or crutches, and almost no pain at all, and I'm able to walk really fast again...my dog is happy again, and me too. I am going to keep exercising and strengthening my ankles, thanks again. You guys should get a trophy
From UK: Fallen down the stairs, age 78 and never sprained my ankle before. Decided to follow your video advice, and it has saved me 5 hour diagnostic wait in hospital department - where they would never explained how to do self help exercises. I do ballet and need to get back to class asap. Also trying to simultaneously move house! Many thanks to you both, hoping for a good result! (I have already had success with your head forward/neck/ shoulder exercises.)
I recently had the same experience, left hospital with 2 paracetamol, a pair of crutches and a by your leave. No advice whatsoever; this video is invaluable!
Well, here I am again. Just whacked my foot good over the weekend. Something I have noticed is that if I do exercises with BOTH feet together the injured foot can more easily do what it needs to do by following the uninjured foot! I couldn't get the injured foot to move by itself - that's really odd to me, but it works. Thanks guys for being my weekend help!
You guys are awesome! I sprained my ankle grade 3 doing JiuJitsu 2 days ago. I’m in crutches but trying to get back to the mat asap as JiuJitsu is my pass time and I can’t stand not training or in the gym working out.
About three years ago I sprained my ankle fairly severely (partial tear in two ligaments, had to wear the boot a few weeks and everything). I did the recommended exercises until the strength returned, (alphabet, stretching, rage of motion). However its always felt a little stiff ever since, and makes a rather loud clicking noise most of the time. But, after just a few minutes of the massage shown in this video, the clicking was much softer, and I could already feel the joint far less tense. THANK YOU! This was exactly what I was looking for!
This is just what my daughter was diagnosed with. She’s a soccer player in her senior year the doctor put her in a cast.! I feel like we’ve made a mistake.
because their both on the same page and dont think like as interupting they complete it and say it better, 2 minds are better than one... This is called masculinity.
Thaddieus Marcheski i think is called teamwork and being in sync with each other. I think it’s only partially a masculine trait, as this requires emotional intelligence as much as logical intelligence. Masculinity is protecting/defending the innocent/helpless (in a nutshell) and maintaining current order. (edit - some words)
Thank you Bob and Brad - I am healing from ankle sprain - so glad to find your guidance. Tracing the alphabet - i like to do the mirror image of letters also for fuller range of motion and to be a little more engaging mentally. Best thing i've found for keeping leg elevated is to put large cushions under bottom of mattress to keep foot above heart level. Thanks again for helping me improve my healing process. Claire
I've been doing these exercises for a sprained ankle and the pain increased from doing them, even after 7 days since the injury. I've therefore not done all the exercises suggested. However, this video is better than other video suggestions by others because the other people do it for athletes and I can't do their exercises at the best of times, with no injury! Hopefully my injury improves bit by bit but at least the swelling has gone down. I think its the tendons that are my problem. Thanks for this video and the one on how to tell if your ankle is broken.
I know this is old but I am watching during quarantine 2020! I sprained one ankle in 2018 and i get tendonitis in it and then I sprained my "good ankle" in March 2020. Before I can see a PT to help break up the scar tissue, I am going to practice these exercises, stretches, and massages. Thank you!!
Wow thx a lot for this. Rolled my left ankle😢, now I know what to do. Learned to wrap with ace not so tight at ankle but snug at bottom and also had my old air cast that I’m wearing today forgot about it till Brad mentioned it any way a wealth of information here. No emergency room for me. Can’t help it I love you guys ya are compassionate and caring many blessings to both of you. Gosh you 2 are great 👍 !
Thank you for showing these exercises it’s been 16 days I rolled my foot my ankle and foot blew up however swelling has gone down although I still have some around ankle joint I can’t face doing these exercises yet 😢maybe in a few days
My sprain took over 5 weeks to be able to even rest my foot without pain, and resulted in nerve sensitivity from the trauma. My ankle blew up immediately, and my whole foot and ankle ended up so incredibly swollen and bruised from my lower calf to toes. What you both say is does apply in most cases but is not the rule in all cases.
How long did it take to recover I’m 17 days into a very bad strain sounds the same as yours my whole foot and ankle blew up it has gone down apart from round ankle it still but swollen I can’t walk normally still am getting increasingly depressed being stuck in the house as was always out before with my dog 😢
@@TASIAawful1 Just be patient and keep exercising and activating the muscles. Your diet should be filled with protein as well and as little sugar as possible. It will take time but do it right and take time with it
I am 53 years old, male and this is the first episode of swelling in my ankle. Up to now I've kept physically active and still go to the gym regularly. One day while crouching I felt a sharp pain in my ankle but after moving it around it went away. Some days later after taking a shower when drying my feet with the towel I discovered my ankle was swollen. No pain, my flexibility and strength seem normal and there is no pain unless you pressure the area. I went to the doctor and had some x-rays taken that show everything normal. The diagnostic was ankle effusion and "Pes Planus & suspected lateral impingement". What worries me is that the swelling doesn't seems to improve after three weeks.
It's really helpful video A month and half ago when I was playing soccer I felt too much pain for my left ankle it was ankle sprain actually it was my first time I didn't use the RICE or PRICE method except Resting a month After that I warmed up 10 to 15 minutes and then started playing it was good in the first 20 minutes before I slept to the ground and felt too much pain 😥😥 I cried and substituted my self and then said to myself I rested a month and still didn't get well why I googled then knew the name Ankle sprain I read a lot about it How to cure ankle sprain It wasn't enough to read only just need some video on UA-cam video to video and finally get you two guys and said to myself this is what you all need to cure exercise and rehab your injury And it's going all the best Thank you guys 🙏
Bob! You got the surfing moves down on that wobble board! Hanging five, hanging ten! Too cool! Thanks for the tips. I always check you guys out after I wipeout!
Does anyone know where to get that particular wide rubber bottomed wobble board? There is nothing like it on the "products Bob and Brad LOVE" via Amazon. I love these videos so thank you guys!!😀
After a bad ankle sprain happened 3 months ago I developed a compensative Tenosynovitis of the tibialis anterior tendon (diagnosed on 10th of March and still not better..) which is causing me problems during the rehab. Most of these exercises inflammate the tendon and, in general, bending the knees, walking too much / too fast or do the stairs too quickly cause me a HUGE amount of pain.. CT scan negative, x-rays negative.. I tried everything.. resting, ice, painkillers, laser therapy.. Any advice for me? :( Thank you.. Virginia.
I sprained my ankle 3 weeks ago because I fell off the train. no fractured bones. just a torn ligament. It is very painful. I can't walk yet, there's a pulling feeling in my leg. but the pain has been greatly reduced and my feet can move and touch the ground. I don't know when it will heal. still swollen and sore in the ankle
Sprained my ankle about 4 weeks ago on both sides of the foot, inversion and eversion, both sides swollen. Couldn't put weight on the foot the first week at all and it was super swollen. Gradually it reduced and I started to put walk on it. The third week I walked without problem. From the third week until now I have been doing strengthening exercises every day. Calf raises, the band flexibility and strengthening parts and the balance board and also i'm using a foam roaller to my calves and pressure ball to the underside of my foot to increase blood circulation to the foot. I feel that my foot is gradually becoming stronger everyday. It may be because my patience start to run out or that I have a really big desire to return to my sport but it seems that despite all training the foot never gets really pain-free and it still remains swollen. I try to do the exercises as often as much as I can. I can jog slowly but as fast as try to increase the speed and power from the foot it starts to hurt, jumping also still hurts a bit. Do you guys have any tips? Should I keep doing what I'm doing everyday and just have patience that it will get better eventually?
My ankle sprained for 1 year still have the pain . I don't know what to call it there is a edema in atfl ligament area (is that fibrotic tissue) that's make stiffness in that area. Is there any treatment for that? Please help
There seems to be a lot of leaning over to do the ankle therapy. What do you do if you have a disc problem in your back? How would you modify the exercises?
Fell over when walking yesterday on a Lime Stone pathway and wrecked my getaway sticks hence the reason I’m here. My foot hit a small rock sticking up, I went ass over tit, ripped all my hands and shins up with scrapes and bruises trying to save myself from face planting. This morning I wake up and there is an ache in my outer ankles. I thought the worst injury was the skin peeling back on my thumb, but today I discovered it’s ankle injury which will set me back a week I think. Not a happy Chappy. Watched all your ankle sprain vids though and established it’s just grade one thank gawd.
I probably had an anterior talofibular ligament injury level 3 and whenever I manage to crack the bones the movement and pain gets much better but only temporarily. Why is that?
guys please i want to ask you how many times a day can a do this exercise and a massage to my ankle! i strained really bad i m on my 7 day the swelling is down and the bruise is getting green
You can do it twice a day for now, but if it starts causing new pain or more pain, stop immediately. Sometimes more is not better. It can cause more issues if you overdo it.
I fell from rock climbing and land on my right feet, i feel all the 3 ligament and all 3 hurt(starting from the front it hurt the most and the back hurt the less) does that mean i injured all three
how often should you do the cross friction massage after a minor ankle sprain? daily? continuing for how many days or weeks? I love the vids btw, they have been such a great resource for me as a professional dancer and dance instructor, I'm a huge fan:)
Can this video be applied to my case. I have a non displaced fracture in my ankle confirmed by an mri. I initially rolled it during Jiu-Jitsu. It didn't hurt at first but a few hours later couldn't really walk but didn't have any bruising. Went to the ER they took an xray but didn't see anything broken they assumed it was just a bad rolled sprained ankle and I agreed with them because two weeks later I was back to training and walking fine except the pain was always there just not very bad. 3 months later I got the mri and they found the non displaced fracture. And now my Dr wants me to wear a giant bulky boot. Even though I can walk just fine.
That are some great tips guys and completely in line whith what i had in mind now i sprained my ankle. But, mine was severe. At the tip of my Fibula, a little chip broke of according to my dokter. Do you have any ideas regarding this kind of sprain and how to recover from this? They wrapped my ankle in pressure bandages an i'm taking my rest as well as walking with crutches. When can i start with the rehab?
My ankle sprain seems to be an inversion anterior ligament sprain which after 10 days is a less swollen, movement has gotten better but it is painful to press on the ligament still...but getting better. Right now if I do the excercise 7 minutes into this video I can feel and hear a clicking where the other ligament is (just under my ankle where you drew the middle line) the clicking doesn’t hurt but I wanted to check if this was normal? And will it go away? Thanks for your videos they have really helped.
Hi I had a question I sprained my ankle 3 months ago and it hasn't healed all the way,. I can fine but I can't move my foot forward all the way with out it hurting can u help me on that?
I hope you can answer my question. I have a sprain in my ankle and due to my job dental assistant in a corporate busy office they put me on a boot they said 3 weeks then another 3 weeks is that right. I don't typically sit at work.
Hello sir , great video 👌 I m a cricket player and my ankle got twisted 2 to 3 times in 2 years while playing . What should I do to avoid sprains further .. Like should I wear a compressor that holds ankle pretty well during practice or anything u can suggest ??!
I broke my ankle years ago and have plates and pins both sides it's starting to bother me are these also stretches and workouts that will help with ankle pain?
I\'m not sure but ,if anyone else wants to learn about what causes pain in ankles try Jaffacter Sprained Ankle Coach (just google it ) ? Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my neighbor got cool success with it.
Hi Bob/Brad, do you have any tips for peroneal tendon subluxation (outer ankle tendon snapping on plantar flexion)? I just try to avoid the snapping and use athletic tape to hold the tendon in place. Thank you.
How kong does it takes for the swelling to come down if it is a grade two or three? I have sprained my ankle as you mentioned (fell on the outside of the foot) that was 3 weeks ago but still it's a bit swollen. Is that normal? Thanks
I have sprained my left ankle and i have my netball game next week. I really want to be in the game but idk if that decision will eat me up. Can i have some ur opinion bout this?
Hi Bob and Brad, I sprained my ankle a month ago and I still can't point as well as the other (also lateral movement limited) but can point up as well as the other. So should I do the pointing down exercises more?
the area near the heel in one of my legs is painfull and the pain gets stronger if i don't rest it , still i do the exercises mentioned in the video. does these exercises help left the pain from the other parts of the foot too ? note: my Therapist makes me do these exercises but she started with only electrical stimulation(not sure about the term or name) in the first 4 sessions without exercises
My 7 year old rolled his ankle on the usual suspect, trampoline, the docs say it's a bad sprain is there anything aside from these that we can attempt to get him to do? Also, he's in a lace up brace while at school then crutches at home is that going to be conducive to helping him heal or should it be crutches for a while? Thanks so much. Great video wth great info!

Calf raises, the band flexibility and strengthening parts and the balance board and also i'm using a foam roaller to my calves and pressure ball to the underside of my foot to increase blood circulation to the foot.

Take MRI image and go to bones doctor this is the first step and then go to medicine sport docotor or a physical therapy doctor.
I fell from rock climbing and land on my right feet, i feel all the 3 ligament and all 3 hurt(starting from the front it hurt the most and the back hurt the less) does that mean i injured all three
You guys are amazing. Thanks
how often should you do the cross friction massage after a minor ankle sprain? daily? continuing for how many days or weeks? I love the vids btw, they have been such a great resource for me as a professional dancer and dance instructor, I'm a huge fan:)
Can this video be applied to my case. I have a non displaced fracture in my ankle confirmed by an mri. I initially rolled it during Jiu-Jitsu. It didn't hurt at first but a few hours later couldn't really walk but didn't have any bruising. Went to the ER they took an xray but didn't see anything broken they assumed it was just a bad rolled sprained ankle and I agreed with them because two weeks later I was back to training and walking fine except the pain was always there just not very bad. 3 months later I got the mri and they found the non displaced fracture. And now my Dr wants me to wear a giant bulky boot. Even though I can walk just fine.
Very helpful! Thank you 🙏
That are some great tips guys and completely in line whith what i had in mind now i sprained my ankle. But, mine was severe. At the tip of my Fibula, a little chip broke of according to my dokter. Do you have any ideas regarding this kind of sprain and how to recover from this? They wrapped my ankle in pressure bandages an i'm taking my rest as well as walking with crutches. When can i start with the rehab?
What would be your best medication to take when it comes to lessening the swollen.
My ankle sprain seems to be an inversion anterior ligament sprain which after 10 days is a less swollen, movement has gotten better but it is painful to press on the ligament still...but getting better. Right now if I do the excercise 7 minutes into this video I can feel and hear a clicking where the other ligament is (just under my ankle where you drew the middle line) the clicking doesn’t hurt but I wanted to check if this was normal? And will it go away? Thanks for your videos they have really helped.
I love these guys!
Thanks Bianca :)

I got a inversion sprain but it hurts the inside of my foot 😳
Nice video. In the initial phase we should do 10 repetitions of each exercise unless painful & gradually increase the repititions isn't it?
Cómo se llama ese aparato 10:59?

Same situation here mate. How is it now ?

Hi Bob/Brad, do you have any tips for peroneal tendon subluxation (outer ankle tendon snapping on plantar flexion)? I just try to avoid the snapping and use athletic tape to hold the tendon in place. Thank you.
How kong does it takes for the swelling to come down if it is a grade two or three? I have sprained my ankle as you mentioned (fell on the outside of the foot) that was 3 weeks ago but still it's a bit swollen. Is that normal?
Thanks
Same as mine 16 days now
How long does it take for the swelling to go down completely?
I have sprained my left ankle and i have my netball game next week. I really want to be in the game but idk if that decision will eat me up. Can i have some ur opinion bout this?

Hi Bob and Brad, I sprained my ankle a month ago and I still can't point as well as the other (also lateral movement limited) but can point up as well as the other. So should I do the pointing down exercises more?
U Guys are amazing!
the area near the heel in one of my legs is painfull and the pain gets stronger if i don't rest it , still i do the exercises mentioned in the video. does these exercises help left the pain from the other parts of the foot too ? note: my Therapist makes me do these exercises but she started with only electrical stimulation(not sure about the term or name) in the first 4 sessions without exercises
My 7 year old rolled his ankle on the usual suspect, trampoline, the docs say it's a bad sprain is there anything aside from these that we can attempt to get him to do? Also, he's in a lace up brace while at school then crutches at home is that going to be conducive to helping him heal or should it be crutches for a while? Thanks so much. Great video wth great info!
