well katie, i'm very happy for you not to need surgery so far as that one doctors opinion.... but let me tell you....something...we all have two personal doctors ..our left leg and our right leg....and the more you WALK not jog
which is harmful in the long run, excuse the pun...to your joints where as walking builds strength... use them often...only you can "feel" what you feel so you can be the judge in that case...for some decisions...the best therapy center has a walking pool and plenty of hydro-therapy equipment...and if not, choose one that does OK? that way you can have the best of both worlds.

Sprains however can sometimes be worse than breaks because they take longer to heal... keep that in mind and continue to wear your brace.
tell the gym teacher that you have a sprain and your going to study.
make sure to get light duty notes from any doctor you see...as thats what your paying for....and the teachers and school/work related supervisors want to see.
