So I was doing Turbo Fire with my 2 sisters and my ankle went sideways at one point. Didn't think anything of it but now its been hurting for a week now. Not a lot of pain. I can still walk and actually still work out. The pain is a 2 on a scale of 10.

Could I use Icy Hot or Ace Bandage to help with the pain? Its hurt on the bone part on the outside. I'm putting ice on it now.

    I'd put an air cast on it, too, (available at drug store). Me being me I'd probably spend the copay and pop into the doc's office, too.

    Don't think icy hot's gonna help as that is more for muscle issues.

    With the ice, hold it on there until it hurt like h*ll, probably 10 min at least. Then take it off. That's only way it will penetrate to the deep bone.

    Best of luck!
