Help? I think my ankle is sprained!!?

Molly, right now it is impossible to tell until you get it seen. They are going to examine the ankle to see if what laxity there is which would indicate a tear in the ligaments that stabilize the ankle. If the ligaments are torn enough they are going to place you in some sort of stabilization system. If it is a small tear they may not do any stabilization. If there is a small to moderate tear they will use a device called an AirCast. If it is heavily torn then they will cast you. Crutches may be used if the tear is a moderate one to keep weight off the ankle.
