How long does a mild to moderate sprained ankle take to heal?
I sprained my ankle playing volleyball and when I landed it turned invertedly. Right the injury there was no pain to walk, but slowly it has started to hurt more. I've wrapped it and used RICE, but I wanna know how long it will take to heal because I have plans to go ice skating Saturday. When I walk, I can't put full pressure on it but i can limp. It's not a bad sprain I know that.

A mild sprain to fully heal is 2-3 weeks a moderate sprain is 4-6 weeks and a severe sprain is up to 3 months more if u don't allow it to heal I figure skated 3 days after a severe ankle sprain to if u want to skate u can it might hurt though

well a couple days till you can walk on it but a week to two weeks till its fully healed it would be faster if you went to the doctor and got a compression sock and some crutches i sprain my ankles all the time
