Ankle sprains are common problems, but they do heal. However, you may not be able to return to normal activities right away. It will depend on the grade of your ankle sprain. If your sprain is mild, it might only be 1 to 3 days. If your sprain is moderate or severe, it could be a few weeks.

Recovery time for ankle injuries varies based on the severity, but for a grade 2 sprain requiring crutches, it will typically take 5 to 10 weeks until the joint is fully healed. You will want to use crutches for the first 4 to 8 weeks, longer if your doctor recommends to. For a grade 3 sprain, the joint may be unusable for 3 to 6 months and perhaps longer if the injury is serious. Crutches become absolutely necessary for the entirety of the healing process for an injury of this severity.
