Sprain i dont think fracture ?!
Question: Yesterday at cheerleading/gymnastics I did the best back hand spring of like my life and I landed and then I slipped and rolled my ankle out. I slipped back, falling, and I heard it crack in like five different places. I was in immediate pain and couldn't really move my ankle. I could flex and point my ankle --barely I was in such pain. Then, I iced it and elevated it and it didn't help much. When my mom came to pick me up we had to go over my grandma's house so I didn't go to the doctor yet I almost couldn't walk like I could put SLIGHT pressure on it but it was so painful. It hurt less then I woke up this morning and it hurts soo bad, I think even more. It's not bruised, yet it's tender, and I can't move it much. It's only slightly swollen too. Whenever I move it, it hurts sooo bad where it feels like either the bone is like smacking the other bone. There is no bone sticking out either.What do you think will happen and do you think I'll need crutches since I can't walk !?

Go to a doctor, dont go asking people online
You dont know what wack jobs will answer
Where was your coach/trainer? Yes you probably have a fracture!! You can make it worse by continuing to walk on it!!
You should definitely see a doctor.
we,re not superman with his xray far vision. our opinions are not so important. FACT- you fell. there is tenderness, wselling. PLEASEEEEEEEEEE see the doctor
Sounds to me like a fracture, by walking on it you will have made it worse :(
