A nurse is discharging a 12 year old client who came to the outpatient clinic with an ankle sprain with their parent. Which of the following statements should the nurse identify as an indication that the client and parent understand the discharge instructions?

A. Wrapping from the knee down is incorrect; the ankle should be wrapped from the toes up to provide proper compression. B. Heat is not recommended immediately after a sprain, as it may increase swelling. C. Bearing weight on the ankle too soon could worsen the injury. D. Applying ice for the first 48 hours helps reduce swelling and pain, so this is the correct statement.
