Grade 2 Ankle Sprain Symptoms.

A grade 2 ankle sprain is considered a moderate injury. It is not as severe as a grade 3, but definitely more serious than a grade 1 sprain. Grade 2 usually means partial tearing of the ligaments in the ankle.

Of course, before you do anything else, you should get an x-ray to rule out a fracture. It’s unlikely, but you want to make sure there isn’t any kind of a break, because if so, you have to keep it immobile until it heals.

But, if there isn’t a fracture, you want to do the opposite (a rehab program) as soon as possible to ensure safe and full healing of the ankle. So, it’s really important to know exactly what you’re dealing with right from the start and the only way to do that is to get an x-ray first.

So, let’s cover the main symptoms you can expect with a grade 2 ankle sprain:

1. Partial tearing of ankle ligaments
2. Ankle is somewhat unstable
3. Moderate amount of pain, bruising and swelling
4. In the first few days, walking should be possible, although probably difficult and painful
5. You should be able to move the ankle somewhat, but you can expect some pain, especially at certain angles of movement

Grade 2 Ankle Sprain Treatment.

Before we begin on the treatment, just remember that whatever you do, a grade 2 ankle sprain cannot heal itself. That means resting it for a long time will not heal the ankle.

Don’t get us wrong… rest is important, but that’s not the only answer. If you just rest and wait and wait and wait… then the ankle will remain very stiff and weak. We see this with people who had a grade 2 sprain weeks, months and even years ago.

The simple fact is that there is enough damage in the ankle that it must be proactively healed properly. That means rehab techniques that help you remove swelling, adhesions and scar tissue, while also improving lymphatic drainage and healthy circulation. The goal is to encourage the body to supercharge its own immune system response to an injury.

And what happens if you don’t? The ankle can stay weak, unstable and stiff, potentially for life. That’s bad! Remember, every movement you make in the lower body begins with the foot, ankle and calf. It is the base of your body. You need that area to be mobile and healthy to have good athletic performance and pain free movement patterns.

If you have a grade 2 ankle sprain and it doesn’t fully heal, it will change how you walk, run, jump, etc… And that will immediately have a negative impact on your other joints (knee, hip, and shoulder). For example, it is extremely common to get a sprained ankle and then all of a sudden, to start experiencing knee pain. You just start to move differently and even if you don’t notice it, your knee will… So, rehabilitating your ankle is absolutely critical.

But, before we get to the details of a good ankle rehab program, one more quick warning… do NOT ice your ankle, unless your doctor specifically tells you to do it.

Recent studies show that ice works as a short term pain reliever, but it’s absolutely horrible for healing your ankle (or any injury for that matter). I know what you’re thinking… wait a sec, don’t ice?!!! Why?!!!

Well, just take a look at what the research shows… ice actually stops the flow of powerful immune cells (called Macrophages), which are directly responsible for removing waste and cellular debris from the injury AND muscle regeneration and repair.

Ice is also responsible for reducing healthy lymphatic drainage and in some cases, reversing the flow of waste back into the injury! In other words, ice significantly impairs the body’s natural healing process, which can prolong your injury by weeks, months or even years. Want to learn more? Click here
