-Dip the injured part in very cold water immediately to reduce the pain and swelling. You can also crush ice cubes in a plastic paper bag, wrap the bag in a towel and dab the injury. Continue administering this cooling treatment for the first 12 hours

- Keep the limb raised as much as possible for the next 24 hours to slow down the blood flow into the joint, hence reduce bleeding into it

- Give some pain relievers

- After 24 hours dip the sprained joint in moderately hot water several times a day
