What should I do for left ankle pain that has lasted for two weeks after dancing and twisting my ankle, especially since there is no swelling and applying Moov has not helped?
Since topical creams like Moov haven't helped, you may have a persistent sprain. I recommend resting the ankle and avoiding activities that worsen the pain. Applying ice packs for 15 minutes a few times a day and using an elastic bandage for support can help. For pain relief, you might try an over-the-counter oral pain reliever like ibuprofen. Because the pain has lasted two weeks, please see a doctor or physiotherapist for a proper physical exam to ensure it heals correctly.
