please put this as best answer i need the pojnts BADLY

Ice packs and painkillers, have someone take a look at it as well.

I could probably tell you depending on what you did. It might be twisted or broken I don't know. You should keep it elevated and put ice on it (cause ice is nice :] ) and try to stay off it unless you really have to walk on it and then go to the doctor to get it checked out.

I hope I could help you.

It could be a strain or sprain.

Put ice on for 10 min on and 10 min off. It will hurt but it will help.

Wear a ankle support and stay off it as much as possible.

Elevate to keep the swollen down.

Go see a foot doctor as soon as you can.

did u do something 2 it? if u just started walking and it hurt, its def. not broken. take some pain meds and ice it to reduce swelling. it doesnt sound broken, probably sprained or strained, even strains hurt! once i strained my arm and i thought it was broken but nope only a strain. u would no if it was broke, i sprained my ankle once and i cried for hours and it swelled up 2 the size of a watermelon and i just knew something was really rong cuz i couldnt walk at all i needed crutches for a month and a week it sucked. :(
