Has anybody climbed with an ankle brace or support after spraining an ankle? How did it work? What kind did you use? Thanks Dave

I haven't tried to climb w/ my brace (don't fit w/my shoes)..but I've thought of this..since I have to wear my brace for 3 more weeks! grrrrrrrr I think maybe getting bigger shoes, or perhaps lace ups (since they come up further). I went climbing for the first time in two months this weekend, I just took of my brace while I was climbing...ankle was a little sore and swollen after... but w/the silly grin on my face your couldn't tell...lol. I think you'll be fine, just be sure to ice before and after, IB too as well as be sure that your doing your "exercise"...lol. But you probley shouldn't be climbing w/your brace if your using this for support rather than just protecting from further injury. Good luck, & take care! =)
