How many days does it take to sprain your ankle while playing basketball?
After that, I have to go to the hospital for examination to see if there are any fractures or fractures. If there is, I need plaster fixation. I also need to see if there is any ligament rupture. Ligament rupture requires surgery or plaster fixation. The best time for operation is 14 days. If there is no operation within 14 days, the broken ligament will become brittle and difficult to suture. If you are not an athlete or afraid of surgery, you can consider plaster fixation.
If it's just a soft tissue contusion after examination, you need to stop moving, apply some vodka ointment or wound pain-relieving milk to your ankle, and then fix it with an elastic bandage, which will basically take two to three days.
If you don't go to the hospital for examination after the injury, but your foot doesn't hurt, but you often sprain your ankle, then you should consider the ligament rupture, because the ligament has a fixed and stable effect on the joint. If it is broken, it will cause habitual sprain, and frequent sprains will wear out articular cartilage. Go to the hospital in time.
In addition, the diagnosis of fracture needs X-ray film to diagnose ligament rupture. If an experienced doctor checks by hand, he should know. If the symptoms are not obvious or the doctor is inexperienced, an auxiliary magnetic resonance examination is needed.
