just ice it a few times a day..or maybe use icy hot. i get injuries all the time in xc and it usually only takes about a week to get better if i'm good about icing and stretching.

there's no way except maybe to stay off it walkin and whatnot will only make it worse so just stick to the doctors order((i would know i broke my knee right before bball try-outs)) just don't really do anything ice it if it hurts and don't do anything the doctor told you not to do((i've done it it doesn't work out))

hope it helped<3

sorry to say but there is no way to heal it fast. just think about it you don't want to mess up your ankle once again because you did track. just let it get better, it stinks now i know but look at me i torn my media collateral ligament during softball season and i only played 3 games and i was out for the season. but it was worth it cause now my knee feels so much better. hope you feel better.

Ice it every night, heat on it every morning, stretch it slowly three or four times a day, don't use it alot for about a week. Stay off of it as much as you can, but don't "over-stay" off of it, because it will become week. You should be able to do the tryouts, and the physicals, but be careful on the physicals. The tryouts should be ok though. Wear the brace with pride, your ankle will heal better (and faster, with less complications) if you wear the brace properly. If your ankle hurts, take meds. (like advil) stretch slowly for about 15 min a few times a day, walk a little bit, but not too much (like, walk around the block or whatever) Don't just ice one side, be sure to wrap the ice around your ankle. (same with heat) hope you make track!!

Theres no way to heal a injury fast no quick fixes i'm afriad. Relax as much as possible and as soon as the brace is off start doing little and often and light work. Hope that helps and that it gets better soon. xx

There isn't any way that I know of to make it heal faster. But, since you were on the soccer team, I'm sure that they know you are a good runner. Let the leader of the tryouts know that you are really committed and would love to be on the team. Let them know that you will be finished with the brace in two weeks and then you should be all better.

Come to the try-outs, come to the meets and help out with things they need. Be there for your team!

Hope I helped.. fill me in on what happens!
