How do you stop ache from snkle sprain?

Answers:
As already noted, RICE treatment is the standard. You can also look for an herb called Bosweillia. It helps to decrease inflammation and pain. It acts with the prostaglandins in the body (as do NSAIDS-Ibuprofen, naproxin sodium, and Cox-2 inhibitors). The advantage is that it blocks the inflammatory prostaglandin as well as leukotrienes, which are also a source of inflammation. The drugs do not block the leukotrienes. Also, the herb is easily cleared from the body, unlike the drugs.

Put the ankle above your heart and do NOT walk on it. Take an anti-inflammatory in regular doses and do not miss a dose. Ibuprofen works very well, but make sure you eat somehting with it so that you don't upset your stomach. I've had many sprains..this works best. Also, put ice on it for the first 24 hours. After that, apply heat.

Breast Cancer..how to go about getting tested?

Ice the ankle-that should help the pain and inflammation. You can also take a natural anti-inflammatory (I dont like drugs) like pineapple. Make sure the pineapple is raw (not canned) and eat it between meals. The enzyme (bromelain) is a goot anti-inflammatory agent and will help.

You will have to give it time to heal probably at least a week before the pain goes away. However, to fully hael it will take longer. For now stay off of it and rest

what do you do when you get a paper cut under your nail?

R.I.C.E.--Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation. If your stomach can handle it, asperin. Tylenol will not take down the swelling. Ibuprofin is okay, but, sometimes the old remedies are the most potent. For the ice, 20 minutes on, 20 minutes off. Do not place the icepack directly on the ankle, rather, wrap the ankle in an ACE bandage, wrap a towel around that and then the icepack
