    This helped me a lot. I’m only 11 but I’m home by myself and I recently twisted my ankle. My mom said that this ace bandage should help. Now I can watch this very helpful video and rap my ankle myself

    Thanks. It's been well over a decade since my last sprain so I remembered little on dealing with it (not to mention I was a clueless teenager back then). I'm dealing with multiple sclerosis and I learned that I should be REALLY careful going downstairs when I'm dealing with leg numbness and loss of sense of balance.
    On the plus side, with the pain of the sprain, the numbness on my left leg disappeared.

    Stethoscopes are often considered as a symbol of the doctor's profession, as doctors are often seen or depicted with stethoscopes hanging around their necks. A 2012 research demonstrated that among several icons of medical profession, the stethoscope had the highest positive impact on the perceived trustworthiness of the practitioner.

  • @junjloc3774
    @junjloc3774 Před 4 lety +1

    I prefer wrapping proximal to distal looser on the anchor tighter as you move to the toes to push fluid up into the lyphatic system. also when coming under the foot giving a nice pull on wrap to help stabilize the ankle is key to making sure the pt has support when they are bearing weight.

    • @jodywhite3798
      @jodywhite3798 Před rokem

      I agree don’t mean no disrespect to her but it’s usually better for the foot if you use the leg as anchor but don’t wrap too tight so the fluid still has the ability to flow and the foot can maintain perfusion while being supported.

  • @iRonlMoNKleY
    @iRonlMoNKleY Před 12 lety +1

    If the sprain was on the medial side like she pointed out, it might be best to wrap the opposite way to give some support to the tissues on the medial side. What she did here would be good for a lateral ankle sprain.

    I have to wrap mine so that it stops rolling due to a GIRL SCOUT INJURY I GOT LAST JUNE. We were trying to find clues for a scavenger hunt, and my group kept running, and we weren't supposed to. I kept saying guys, stop running, I can't keep up. And then I kinda... Hit a corner where the sidewalk dropped to grass... A pretty deep drop... I couldn't move my foot without tons of pain for about 3 days, and now the outside of my right foot has hurt ever since. I can't really walk anywhere without rolling it once or twice, and I have a loft bed that I have to climb up a ladder to get on and off.

    I just came back from a broken tibia at the very base and I just sprained that same ankle. It was twisted outwards rather than inwards, but the outer part is also the side that hurts. It doesn’t hurt much and I can stand and limp as long as I don’t flex it too far forward at which point it hurts. The base of the outer ankle bone somewhat barely hurts after pressing it but I don’t know if that’s the bone or the ligament near it? What should I do. Thank you!

    the bandage, isn't it supposed to face out of the skin? because it will give a proper tightness if it's rolled that way, but in the video it's facing the skin. i am sorry for my bad english. at least that's what our lecturer taught us, or maybe it's not a big deal that you can just do it both way
