While hiking several miles from camp, a scout slips on loose gravel and twists their ankle. The ankle quickly becomes swollen and painful, but the scout is awake and able to talk. You need to stabilize the injury and safely get them back to camp. These are the key first aid steps you should take.
Stop walking on the injury, follow RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation), immobilize the ankle (such as with a splint or wrap), and assist the scout in slowly returning or calling for help if needed.
