Hi, I also sprained my ankle (grade 2 anterior) 5-6 weeks ago and still have a large hard lump under my ankle. The ankle is clicking and it's affecting the ROM. I can jog OK but any twisting and turning hurts. I've had 3 physio appointments but he doesn't seem concerned about it. He gave massage, ultrasound and exercises to strengthen and balance. I've had no x-Ray or MRI scans. I did RICE for the first 3-4 days. What's the best way to try to get the swelling down, is it to keep up the exercises so that circulation is improved and massage? I've heard dry needling might be helpful. Should I continue to ice or heat, maybe both? I've sprained lateral ankle ligaments before (playing soccer again) and there is scar tissue but I'm worried the longer I leave this, the less likely I'll be able to get rid. I guess everyone responds differently to all treatments. I read chiropractors might be able to help reduce scar tissue/swelling or should I see an orthopedic surgeon. I'm not young anymore but want to get it sorted. Thanks!
