If you sprained your ankle, you’ve torn or partially torn ligaments in your ankle and there is nothing which can be done to "fix" or "cure" it for tomorrow.
Best way to treat it is with RICE Rest, Ice, Compression (Wrap it), Elevation.
It can take some time for it to be completely healed.

a sprained ankle cannot be "cured" by tomarrow..
the best you can do for it today is to not walk AT ALL.
wrap your ankle with some sort of cloth and keep ice on it..
then just keep it up for the rest of the day.. and try not to walk on it as much as you can..

It won’t just get better for tomorrow if its sprained. The best way to treat is:
R – rest
I – ice
C – compression
E – elevation

Not a chance, sorry charlie. Thats not going to happen. Put ice on it, though, and it might feel better a little bit tomorrow. If you walk on it and it gets used to you walking, you will be fine tomorrow, but you cannot just fix your ankle in a day and be able to just walk the next.. impossible.. well myabe not, but most likey, yeah.

NO. You do not need to be walking tomorrow, it will only make it worse. Wouldn’t you rather use crutches, or stay home for 2 or 3 days, then have to walk like an idiot for 3 weeks?

Well, of course your ankle won’t heal by tomorrow, but I suppose if you don’t stress it too much, you could just tape it like a gymnast does. Talk to the school nurse since it happened at school. He or she should be able to set you up! Otherwise, do a little research and tape it yourself. It’s not too hard as long as you go in the proper direction and don’t pull it too tight!

I don’t think that it can be cured by tomorrow. Some things that you can do to help it is first of all not walk on it at all. Have someone around the house help and get you things that you need. Also you could use a pillow(s) to raise it. Im not sure how that helps but doctors said that to me when I hurt my ankle. One last thing that I know you could do is put ice on it. It may make it feel better. I hope it gets better soon, good luck!
