Ligament tear grade1
I got ligament tear in my leg ankle one month back.. initially i was not aware and didnt take treatment and doing all house hold works.. now i have consulted dr. He told it is mild tear.. need to wear grip band for 3-4 weeks. Can i do household work by using grip band...
I have 2 babies.. im living in 2nd floor.. im not able to avoid daily routine.. my fear is since one month i was not taking any treatment or rest.. if from now i start taking rest with mild household chores will my ligment heal without any issues in future..
Can i give hot towel compression in that area..
Im having mild burning sensation under foot also...

Hello
For a ligament tear also it'll take around 3 to 4 weeks to recover completely when you're in rest .since you haven't taken rest for one month..pls follow these precautions
Next Steps
rest for 3 weeks
hot water bag application two times a day
don't keep the limb downwards
ankle binder application regularly or plaster application if possible for 3 weeks
limb elevation over two pillows
make active toe movements
