ok to make a long story short i sprain a joint (i guess is basically my ankle if it is tell me in yur answer) and the doctor put me on crutches and an aircast its doesnt hurt that bad to walk on it but im supposed to stay off it for a week (i get off this comming up wednesday) ive been walkin on it with the cast but not the crutches and everyone is telling me thats bad will it make it worst or what
p.s. if it helps on a scale of 1 to 10 of pain its like a 3 1/2 (link)
a sprain is a stretched or twisted ligament the reason a doctor gave you a cast and crutches is to act as a support whilst the ligament heals the best thing to do is walk on it for a breif period of time and then keep off it to let it rest this will aid the ehaling procces and make it go quicker but if you keep putting pressure on it your body will replace the proper ligament tissue with scar tissue this tissue is not as strong as normal asnd will make ur ligament less useful
