GREG’S MONTHLY TIP

——-

You have just rolled your ankle. What do you do? More important, what don’t you do?

Don’t lie down and elevate the ankle.

Don’t put it in a boot.

Here’s what you do:

Try to walk it off and light jogging if possible

Put ice on it as soon you can. (Frozen peas, if ice not available).

After icing, walk and jog easily on smooth surface.

Apply Zhen Gu Shui.

If the ankle swells up anyhow:

1) Lather ankle with vegetable oil.
2) Cover ankle with crushed ice
3) Wrap with two towels
4) Lie on sofa for two hours

If swelling doesn’t go down, see a doctor
