No treatment other than R.I.C.E initially, then lots of rest, and then not running on it (much), I've done a few balance exercise on a balance cushion, I've also used the ankle twist prevention program on my Compex Runner (which uses electro-stimulation to build the muscles), but nothing very regular (busy job and new baby in the house). I'm 40.
It's actually improved noticeably in the last few weeks, my ankle doesn't swell during the day at work now, or after a short (5km) road run. I still feel pain if I try cranking it over and standing with my weight on it, so clearly not there yet. I feel if I tried trail running now I'd almost certainly turn it again, so I'll continue with the cycling, mountain walking (in boots and with poles), and maybe the odd short road run around the village.
I have a Zamst ankle support but it makes my arch hurt when I run in it, I'll have a look at that aircast one though, thanks for the tip. 
Edit: My Zamst looks really similar to that Aircast, maybe I had it done up too tight when I tried running in it. I'll give it another go.
