What to do FIRST for an Ankle Sprain…

Immediately after a sprained ankle, you will see and feel swelling and pain / stiffness around the entire ankle. It may be difficult or even impossible to walk on it. But, after a few more hours, it will swell even more and you may start to see bruising, while it it becomes even more stiff and painful.

The first thing you should do is find out what kind of injury you have… in other words, is it just an ankle sprain or do you have a fracture? If it’s just an ankle sprain, is it fairly mild (like a grade 1 sprain) or is it severe (like a grade 3 sprain)? Are you able to walk on it at all or is it pretty minor? Is it a high ankle sprain or a more everyday inversion ankle sprain?

It is absolutely imperative to find out what kind of injury you have, because that will help you on your road to a full recovery. Now, if it’s just an ankle sprain, you can begin a rehab program like HEM immediately. But, if it’s a fracture, you will want to immobilize the ankle until the fracture heals.

In other words, a fracture needs almost complete rest to make sure it sets and heals correctly. But, if it’s just ligament damage (a sprained ankle), then the sooner you begin a great proactive rehab program, the better.

The only way you will now this for sure is if you get an x-ray. Now, even though this may sound like a big deal, it’s really not. And it will give you vitally important information, because if you have a fracture and don’t know it and then proceed to move on your ankle too much, it will never heal properly. Obviously, a fracture is a serious injury and common sense will give you some insight about your injury, but if you have any doubts, we always recommend getting an x-ray to be sure.

What NOT to do FIRST for an Ankle Sprain

This is such a common myth, but we still hear it all the time… Many people mistakenly think that the first thing they should do is ice their ankle. But, studies have consistently shown that ice does NOTHING to heal your ankle and can actually cause a great deal of harm.

The only real benefit of ice is mild, short term pain relief, because it stops the communication between nerves and muscle, which makes the area go numb. But, it does not reduce inflammation and in fact, can actually cause a ton of damage.

For example, ice not only stops the flow of lymphatic drainage, it can actually reverse the flow of waste BACK INTO YOUR INJURY. And that’s just the beginning of how ice can cause your healing process to slow down and even stop in its tracks. If you want to read the studies, check out this article on ice… (click here >>)

The SECRET to Healing Fast – Good Ankle Rehab

So, let’s assume you do NOT have a fracture, but some kind of ankle sprain (grade 1-3 or a high or inversion ankle sprain, etc…). Now, that you’ve figure out what’s going on in your ankle and you have avoided the pitfall of icing and waiting for your ankle to try and heal on it’s own (it won’t!), you are ready for step 2…

What you need is a high quality ankle rehab program that removes the waster and swelling quickly, while also promoting healthy blood flow to increase the circulation of healthy immune cells into the ankle. These powerful immune cells (called Macrophages) will eat up the debris and swelling and then regenerate healthy tissue. (FYI, ice also stops the flow of Macrophages)…

Again, the sooner you start a good ankle rehab program, the better. You don’t want scar tissue to develop and weakness and instability can become a long term concern if not dealt with properly. In other words, without a good rehab program, your ankle will stay weak and unstable, which usually leads to more injuries in the ankle and possibly the knees, hips and even low back. It also leads to significantly impaired performance with very limiting equipment like ankle braces, tape, etc…

Remember, if you hurt your ankle and it does not heal properly, then it will change how you walk, move and run. And that will affect every joint above the ankle. So, it’s really, really important to heal your ankle quickly, safely and fully, so it can move naturally. This will IMPROVE your overall movement and performance, while protecting your ankles and other joints.

Overall, a good ankle rehab program should NOT take more than 20-30 minutes a day. You can go see a great physical therapist or try HEM, our at home ankle rehab program that has helped over 100,000 people heal new and old ankle injuries safely and quickly…

If you want to heal your ankle fully & fast…

And get back to doing what you love PAIN-FREE, without the fear of re-injury

This will be the most important thing you ever do for yourself.

Here’s why:

My name is Scott Malin and fifteen years ago, I had to give up what I love… playing basketball. It literally crushed me to give it up!!

But, I had sprained my ankles so many times that I could no longer play.

Every time it happened, I used R.I.C.E. (rest, ice elevation, compression), but my ankles took months to heal and just kept getting weaker and more painful.

I tried everything, including ankle braces, but they made my ankles even weaker and then my knees started hurting too!

When I sprained my ankle one last time and had to crawl off the court, I knew I was done.

That night, I sat in my apartment and cried.

I was in my early thirties and thought I had to give up what I loved for the rest of my life.

But, I had no other option…

My ankles were just way too weak, stiff and unstable and painkillers/ice did nothing anymore.

As I lay in bed, staring up at the ceiling, I remembered back to when I trained with a clinician for the National Academy of Sports Medicine and Soft Tissue Therapist for the Los Angeles Clippers.

I also thought about a revolutionary Naturopath that taught me so much about healing the body naturally.

Then, I came up with a crazy idea…

It instantly improved how my ankle felt.

And the more I did it, the better my ankle got.

By day 6, my ankle was 100% pain-free and felt stronger and more stable than BEFORE I got injured.

The best part… I PLAYED BASKETBALL AGAIN, BUT THERE WAS NO PAIN!!

Afterward, I cried again, but they were tears of joy!!

When I told them what I did, my basketball buddies laughed and said I was crazy.

They called me a “dreamer”.

But, I didn’t care.

Because I had nothing to lose and everything to gain.

I threw my ankle braces away.

After months of late nights, early mornings, and lots of trial and error…

I created a complete, at-home healing system with incredibly reliable results:

  • Heals new ankle injuries including ANY type and grade of ankle sprain.
  • Heals old ankle injuries that never fully healed.
  • Heals weak and unstable ankles.
  • Even heals most Achilles, calf and foot injuries!

Since I was a fitness trainer, I was able to help all my clients (celebrities and athletes) whenever they got injured (which happened a lot!).

I was even on the news a few times!!!

The response from my clients was so overwhelming that a few of them eventually convinced me to make it available to everyone.

And even though it is incredibly complete, I always wanted to keep it SUPER simple and easy to do.

So, just follow along with me on any device and that’s it!

You get instant access to all the videos, which are short and focused on quickly giving you the information you need.

I will show you the absolute BEST rehab techniques, exercises, stretches, activations, holistic techniques, prehab techniques, etc….

These are techniques you will NOT find online anywhere else.

You will learn the perfect form for everything to get the best possible results.

It has taken many years of incredibly hard and dedicated work, but I am so humbled that over 100,000 people have healed themselves fully and fast with my program.

If you don’t believe me, please, check out all the reviews, including video testimonials, before and after pictures, etc. from people of all ages.

And listen, I know you’re probably still skeptical. That’s totally fair…

That’s why we have a very simple, no hassle, 30 day money back guarantee, so it’s completely risk-free to give it a try right now.

I created this program, because I don’t want others to go through all the pain and misery that I did!!

I don’t want anyone else to give up what they love…

Life is too short!!!

And now, there’s an easy way you can heal yourself and get back to your life.

I wish you all the best and thank you!!

Just got your videos for the holistic rehab the other day. It has already helped and I am so grateful as I know Drs want to cut you open and ask questions later. My left ankle is very badly sprained, completely black and purple and swollen half way up my calf. I am an athlete and have zero intentions of being cut on now or in the future! It was a major eversion off a curb and I just want it to get back to normal. Thanks so much for putting this HEM ankle rehab together, it's a godsend! Have a beautiful day.

very beneficial

Hello Mr. Malin,

I want to thank you for this website. In the end of november, I sprained my ankle and my doctor said that there is an avulsion fracture in my ankle(ATFL). I had really hard times after this incident. When I was looking for how to heal fast, I saw your website. I tried to do as much as different exercises that you showed. Now I face some difficulties during my daily life due to my foot but swelling is decreasing everyday thanks to exercises. Especially, the video about how to activate ankle is very beneficial for me.

Thanks for your support both mentally and physically.

Sincerely,
Orhun Oktar, Electrical and Electronics Engineer
