27 days left and I sprained my ankle!

I can't believe that I fell yesterday, right outside my house. My ankle hurts when I walk, its not swollen or bruised but I am worried about how it will feel in the next few weeks!
Be careful out there!

OMG. I am so sorry. Elevate, ice, and keep it wrapped as much as possible. That's what I would do to make it feel better.

OH no! Make sure you rest it for sure. Don't work out for a few days and wear flats or sneakers if possible, just to be safe. I'm sure you'll be fine by the big day!

My boss invited us up to going skiing in Vermont and I said it was too close to my wedding for exactly that reason!

I feel your pain. I sprained my ankle Dec 8th at work and I'm stilll limping around. I have a Drs. appt. Feb 4th but it stinks!!!!! I can't wear nice shoes, I'm limping, and I can't walk long distant or put all of my weight on it, and its been a month. I need this to go away already. Take it from me go to the Drs immediately! Have them give you an air cast to hold it in place.

Thanks ladies.
I have been icing and elevating it. FH was great last night, he iced me every 20 min, made me a great salad for dinner.

I am scared cause I thought I heard a pop, and I too have sprained my ankles a ton of times. I am relieved cause I don't see any bruises or swelling, I am worried about wearing heals and dancing.

I am a teacher so it is almost impossible to stay off my feet during the day, but I think it will sneakers every day until the big one.

Thanks for all your support and advice

I would go to the Dr. ASAP. This happened to me 6 weeks before my wedding, i fell and was in alot of pain and it was swollen. It got so bad within a few hours that i couldnt even walk anymore and i went straight to the doctor. Turned out that I tore a couple of ligaments in my foot and had to put on a cast, walk on crutches bc i couldnt put my foot down at all. You can just use an aircast, this will help you ALOT, you can go to a pharmacy and buy the aircast yourself, i would suggest this. You can take the aircast off whenever you want. But i had to be put on medication and it definitely helps. Dont take the risk of not going to the doctor immediately and aggrevating it more.
