Purpose
The investigators will study 2 doses of etoricoxib to prove that 60 mg once daily will be non-inferior to etoricoxib 90mg daily (for 14 days) in the treatment of acute ankle sprain in sports. The investigators objective is to discuss the point that the investigators will follow the minimal dose that is effective for the treatment of this acute condition in orthopedic.

Primary Outcome Measures:
- Reduction of pain during active mobilization measured using a visual analogue scale VAS at day 8 [ Time Frame: 8 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Volumetric measurement of the ankle and foot [ Time Frame: day 1 and day 8 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Pain during motion against resistance [ Time Frame: day 15 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Functional impairment and global assessment of efficacy by either patient and investigator [ Time Frame: day 15 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Tolerability will be assessed by the frequency of adverse experiences and global assessment of efficacy by either patient and investigator [ Time Frame: day 15 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
