    Often it might be, yes, because you favor one leg and walk off balance.

I can't even find a position to sleep that doesn't hurt anymore. A sprain needs a warm bath or long shower, massage, maybe an Icy Hot or other large patch, a heating pad with a damp washcloth between you and it, and some gentle bending exercise.
