“How long is the treatment for a sprained ankle?”

The duration of recovery is dependent on the severity of ankle sprain. This can range from a couple of weeks to several months.

Depending on the type of sprain and the degree of damage dictates the recovery course. If it is a "simple sprain" then I recommend ice for the 1st 3 days and a compression anklet stocking for the first 3-4 weeks to control the swelling and allow the healing to continue. Always remove the compression sock at night to allow the foot and ankle to get enough blood flow when not walking. If the symptoms persist longer than a couple of weeks I recommend getting a steroid injection to control the inflammation and then look into regenerative medicine options such as PRP or amnio to restore the internal structures. Good luck.

depends if surgery or not

Depending on the severity of the ankle sprain, it will typically take from 3-8 weeks to recover.
