Thanks once again, Eagle. Like a lot of soldiers, I get impatient when it is unclear how long I will be out of commission. I am taking a deep breath and reconciling myself to at least 12 weeks of PT and recovery, longer if the exercises and NSAIDS don't work.

Since this is such a common injury, here is a link to the AMEDD treatment guidelines, including exercises to assist with recovery: http://www.mamc.amedd.army.mil/refer...e%20sprain.doc
