What Should I Do if My Twisted Ankle Hurts a Lot?
Foot twisting pain may be caused by ligament sprains, muscle strains, joint dislocations, and other reasons. It can be treated through medication, physiotherapy, and surgery.
Ligament Sprain: During the twisting of the foot, it may lead to excessive stretching and damage of local ligaments, causing severe local pain and limited movement. Cold compresses and pressure bandaging can be used to facilitate recovery. Those with severe pain can also take medications such as Aspirin Enteric-coated Tablets, Ibuprofen Sustained-release Tablets, and Paracetamol Tablets under the guidance of a doctor to relieve pain.
Muscle Strain: Twisting the foot may also cause excessive stretching and damage to local muscles, with clinical manifestations mainly including local pain, swelling, and bruises. You can take Naproxen Tablets, Celecoxib Capsules, Diclofenac Sodium Sustained-release Tablets, and other medications as recommended by your doctor.
Joint Dislocation: It may also cause the joint to dislocate, presenting abnormal joint appearance, severe pain, and limited movement. Professional doctors can perform skilled reduction treatment, and surgical reduction can also be performed if necessary. Besides the above situations, it may also be due to Achilles tendon injuries, fractures, and other reasons, which also require timely improvement and treatment.
During the treatment process, patients need to pay more attention to rest and reduce the local burden to prevent adverse effects on recovery.
