Bandage or Wrap
If you have an ankle sprain and you desire to retain some mobility, you can use an elastic bandage to compress the spot. This remedy will also help to keep the swelling under control. You will need to have this remedy in place anyway as a means to avoid aggravating the sprain. This is one of the most popular remedies used for sprains, even in hospitals. When applying the band, it is recommended that you allow some measure of slack so that you don’t go numb in that spot. It is preferred to allow some ease of the bandage or wrap and your skin.
