How to heal a sprained ankle ? Can't rest ?

i know you wont be happy about it, but you need to rest it as much as possible, or else it wont heal. But, since you cant rest it 24/7 it would be a good idea to use crutches to get around college. Also, get an ankle brace from a drug store. One that laces up. It will take away most of the pain when you walk. Running, and exercising with it sprained is a bad idea, so lay off of running for at least a week. If you can barely stand then you cant run.
