Six weeks ago I suffered an inversion (lateral) ankle sprain. MRI showed a torn anterior talofibular ligament with some stretching of the deltoid ligament. So far I've been treated with NSAIDs which I took for 4 four weeks, compression with an ace bandage wrap, elevation (when feasible), and limiting weight bearing (again when feasible). After seeing an orthopedist last week, I (finally) start some physical therapy in few days.
The pain in the lateral aspect of the ankle still limits me -
So, the question is how long should it take for this to heal enough so that I can get back to diving safely and comfortably?????
Thanks.
