If the tendonitis is severe enough so as to limit pressure on that leg - for purposes of walking - then, yes, the doctor would/should give you crutches (or, at least, a specialized walking boot, if indicated).

How many days should you use crutches if you sprain your ankle?

Yes as when you have a sprained ankle you can't put pressure on your foot if your foot is severly sprained. I would recomend getting crutches but (if you don't want to wear crutches you can wear an ankle brace where you can get from any store) only use them for about 3-7 days and start trying to walk and do muscle exercises. You can get crutches from a pharmacy/drug store. Hope this helps.

Should they give me a brace if i sprained my ankle?

In my opinion, you should go with a brace if your sprain is minor. However, if you or your doctor feels it is a bad sprain, I suggest crutches for 2-5 days. After that, if it still doesn't feel better, you might have a worse condition, and should then go to the doctor immediately. Hope this helps!
