This is where I got the sprain !


My recent experience with Castor oil for ankle sprain

What is an ankle sprain?

A ankle sprain is an injury to the ligaments around the ankle joint.They are caused when a joint is forced to move into an unnatural position.They are held in place by the Ligaments which are very strong, flexible fibers that hold our bones together. When these ligaments stretch too far or tears off, the joint becomes painful and swell.making you immovable .

I have been using Castor oil to treat other ever since i came to know about it miracle property of healing pains and swellings .For the fist time I was in a mess of pains ,yesterday while cleaning the house I slipped and fell on the ground along with the heavy furniture I was holding ,no one was there to help me to get up ,poor me somehow squeezed my self out from under the heavy stuff and tried to get up ,I realized that my right foot and ankle along with the heel was hurting badly ,I just could not raise up ,bearing the pain i somehow moved away but could not stand ,It was a seriously a bad experience ,I felt too helpless

  • I COULD NOT REACH FOR ICE TOO SO THAT I CAN GIVE A COMPRESS AND  GET RELIEF WHICH IS A VERY COMMON KNOW FIRST AID TREATMENT THOUGH.

It stuck to me that I should apply some pain reliever so that I can get some relief ,in my medicine cupboard I saw a bottle of Castor oil ,I took it out and applied a lot of oil on the hurting area of my ankle and foot and with the help of cotton and crape bandage I tied it lightly and had a homeopathic medicine ARNICA 30(4 GLOB) EVERY 2 HRS,I was relieved saw my pain going away gradually ,i kept on applying Castor oil every 3 hrs and the next morning when I rose it was really a miracle my pain has subsided ,very little pain was shooting in my foot and ankle ,Today I do have pain in the sprained area but yes it is bearable and I expect it to go soon .

HOW TO TREAT THE SPRAIN AND TYE A BANDAGE:-

  • A crepe bandage 6 inches broad
  • Good amount of cotton wool for padding the affected area of the foot
  • a bottle of Castor oil to apply on the sprain

method first apply quite a lot of Castor oil on the affected area , do not massage ,just apply ,then pad it with cotton wool ,and ultimately tie a crape bandage lightly

  • take rest with your foot up on the pillow .
  • and have arnica 30 as said
  • The pain will start receding .
  • repeat it thrice a day and the sprain will soon heal
  • TODAY I FEEL MUCH BETTER THOUGH I STILL HAVE LITTLE PAIN LEFT ,BUT I REALLY EXPECT THE PAIN WILL GO AWAY BY TOMORROW LEAVING ME BACK TO MY NORMAL LIFE.

I agree. I have used Castor Oil for Muscular aches and it does work. I have tried the Olde Jamaica Black Castor Oil brand and it is quite effective - on the hair as well.
