Hello lybrate user, sprained ankle you should first and foremost avoid massaging the foot and ankle. Secondly get an x-ray of the ankle to rule out any fractures. You can apply crepe bandage, ice pack application and strict limb elevation while sleeping and active moments of the toe to avoid swelling and inflammation. Thank you.
