If your have injured your ankle the initial management or during the acute stage of ankle sprains the RICE principle is followed. Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation. These strategies help to limit the bleeding and subsequent swelling that would otherwise occur, restricting joint range of motion and increasing pain. These principles should be followed for up to 72 hrs post injury where bleeding is still likely to occur.

 Rest: Wherever possible limit the activity of the ankle and rest as much as possible. The use of crutches may also be indicated if there extreme pain when putting weight through your foot when walking.

 Ice: Use immediately after injury. You can use your Ice Wrap Pro to ice your ankle. Apply the ice pack for approximately 15 minutes every 1-2 hours.

 Compression: Apply a firm but not constricting bandage around your ankle. The Ice Wrap Pro will provide compression while you are applying the ice.

 Elevation: Raise your ankle above heart level on a couple of pillows for 15 minutes at a time. Elevation can be effective if used in conjunction with ice.
