Doctors please help?!

Doctors please help?

My ankle is swollen and bruised and hurts to bend it or move it around. It doesnt hurt that much but It still hurts, its also tender. I dont remember any injury but I may have hurt it somehow. I can walk on it but I can't figure out why it is swollen. See on my left ankle it is hollow like it is supposed to be, but on my right ankle the hurt one it is round and It hurts. It is also purple which is why I think it is bruised. I am also 14 years old. I can also feel the bone on both ankles but the ankle is round on the right ankle. The round part that is bruised is on the inside of the ankle not on the outside. What do you think is wrong and what should I do for it. also can you tell me what you are a doctor in

I am not a doctor, but this is a question I can answer for you with confidence. It is quite possible to twist your ankle, thereby damaging the underlying muscle, without realizing it at the time. In fact, I have done it before. You need to apply compression-- to do this, you can buy an ankle brace (ace bandage type) relatively inexpensively (less than 10 dollars) and take ibuprofen (advil) for the swelling. Try not to put strain on it by running or jumping a lot, and if you are sitting, try to put it up (in a recliner or foot stool or something similar). You will find that it feels better pretty quickly. If you wear flip-flops a lot, it is possible that they are the cause of your injury. As much as we all love flip-flops, they are terrible for your feet.
