Sore ankle ???!
Question: I have a very sore ankle it is fine until i move it or walk/stand on it... I have had x-rays and a ct scan of my ankle but there is no break there was some soft tissue swelling suggesting a sprain but after staying off it for a week on crutches and having it strapped no better it has been 6 weeks since being off crutches and it is still agonising to say the least i have had tendonitis in my metatarsles in both feet that comes and goes as it pleases is there any way to get relife other than constant brufen and "rest" (i have 2 children 1 is 16 mths)
NOTE: I have been to a DOCTOR this whole time he is stumped and has suggested a bone scan ...
PS. I fell new years eve from high heels but that was 8 weeks ago now too i have done this befor to the other ankle but that has healed in days...
PPS. I also have a etra bone in the navicular joint (sp) but is a "normal variant "

You didn't say what type of doctor--I hope it's an orthopedic doctor. If he is "stumped" then get a second opinion. Could possibly be torn ligaments though, why did they do a CT Scan instead of an MRI?
