What should I do when I bruised the bone of my ankle?

If you have a bruised bone in your ankle do you want to wrap it and rest it?

  • Answer:

    Rub ice cubes on the affected area for 5 to 10 minutes three times a day. This will help reduce swelling and promote healing. Take over-the-counter ibuprofen or acetaminophen to reduce pain. Be patient. Bone bruises can take a few months to heal.
