Cat Twisted Ankle. A sprained ankle is something that can be easily fixed within about a week or two of rest and healing. In moderate to severe ankle sprains, it may be too painful at first to pull your toes far enough to feel a stretch in your calf.

Rest, ice, compression, and elevation. This can stretch or tear the ligaments that support your joint. This has really helped relieve pain for our family for many things such as sunburns, back pain and apparently, twisted ankles.
