    Has your doctor diagnosed you with tendonitid, or is this a diagnosis you determined over the internet? Your doctor is the only one who can tell you how to treat tendonitis;there are various degrees of tendonitis and many treatment options depending on this.

    You can't just wrap it, or put an air cast on your ankle without your doctor recommending this. You should be resting with your ankle up to relieve the swelling and taking anti-inflammatories.

    Discuss treatment with your doctor, please

    Well then...if your doctor told you to wrap it, why are you asking strangers on the internet if you should wrap it?

    Wrap it then. If you had doctor's instructions, then I just wasted my time giving you an answer.

    It is a leg brace with a pump in it to tighten it up, expensive and unnecessary if your doctor said just to wrap it. What is your problem anyway with this. Wrap it.

    So first you ask if you should wrap it or use an air cast...then you say the doctor told you to wrap it...then you say the doctor said you could do both....what do you really want us to tell you at this point? Go buy the expensive air cast if that will make you happy...if the doctor said both, then go ahead, buy it if you really want it. The fact is, this all could have been settled early on if you had just taken the time to put all this information in your original question instead of making us have to pull it out of you.

    So how old are you anyway?

    A air cast has to specifically fitted and you will have to take it off and on periodically as it can't be worn for 24 hours steady.

    Because sometimes kids get on here asking questions that go on and on and on, then we stop answering because it goes nowhere.. Something like this one.

    You also wanted to know how to get pregnant, or if you were pregnant, or how long it takes to get pregnant the first time. That didnt go far either
