Trial Outcomes
Area Under the Curve From Day 1 to Day 3 (AUC1-3 Days) of Pain Intensity(PI) on Movement for Diclofenac/Methanol Gel and Placebo Gel
AUC of PI on movement was measured by a numerical rating scale (NRS) during the 48 hour time interval from Day 1 to 3. AUC1-3 day was calculated based on trapezoidal method. Pain intensity was measured in NRS scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (extreme pain). Participants assessed the severity of ankle pain using the NRS scale at baseline (prior to treatment) and at 10, 30 minutes and 1, 4, 6, 12, 18 and 24 hours after the first dose of treatment and twice daily after dosing. (NCT02100670)
Timeframe: up to 72 hours

AUC1-3 Days of PI on Movement for Diclofenac Sodium + Methanol, Diclofenac, Methanol and Placebo
AUC of PI on movement was measured by a numerical rating scale (NRS) during the 48 hour time interval from Day 1 to 3. AUC1-3 day was calculated based on trapezoidal method.

Participants assessed the severity of ankle pain using the NRS scale at baseline (prior to treatment) and at 10, 30 minutes and 1, 4, 6, 12, 18 and 24 hours after the first dose of treatment and twice daily after dosing.

Timeframe: Baseline to 10 days (end of study)
| Intervention | Hours (Median) |
|---|---|
| 1% Diclofenac Sodium+3% Menthol | 1.03 |
| 1% Diclofenac Sodium | 4.00 |
| 3% Menthol | 1.00 |
| Placebo | 4.00 |
Time to Complete Recovery
Time to complete recovery measured as the day with complete relief of ankle pain (Participant-rated NRS scores were 0 for pain intensity at rest and pain) and swelling (Participants did not have any apparent swelling nor experience any pain or limitation of movement of the injured ankle as determined by the Principal Investigator or designee during the course of an ankle exam).

Pain Relief Score (PRS)
Pain relief was measured at each time point using a 5-point Pain Relief Scale ranging from 0-4 while at rest (Where: 0- No pain relief; 1- A little or perceptible pain relief; 2- Meaningful pain relief; 3- A lot of relief; 4- Complete relief). Participants assessed the degree of ankle pain relief using the PRS scores at 10, 30 minutes and 1, 4, 6, 12, 18 and 24 hours after the first dose of treatment and twice daily after the first day of treatment.

Sum of Pain Intensity Difference (SPID)
SPID was calculated as the time weighted sum of pain intensity differences (PID) from 0 to 7 Days. PID was calculated as PI at a given time point 't' subtracted by the PI at baseline. PI was measured on NRS scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (extreme pain). The possible range of SPID for 0-6 hours was from -60 to 60, for 0-12 hours was from -120 to 120, for 0-1 day was from -240 to 240, for 0-3 days was from -720 to 720, for 0-7 days was from -1680 to 1680. A higher value of SPID indicates greater pain relief. (NCT02100670)
