I have been using an ankle brace to help with the swelling, but I'm wondering if a different type of shoe would help? I think what I use not are crosstrainers. Would the type of motion on a ski machine be more like running, therefore making a true running shoe a better option?
Ouch that sounds painful. I know before I've gotten advice for the elliptical to like get up on your toes a bit and then back on your heels. I don't know if that would work for the ski machine.

I have sprained my ankles before too - one was so bad I passed out from the pain like 5 min. later! It probably would've been better if it were a break.
