Left ankle pain?!
Question: Left ankle pain!?
ive been practicing my aerials (no handed cartwheels) and it hurts when i land on it!. it is my left ankle and i have an ace bandage and a maximum support ankle brace, but they dont seem to be doing anything!. i really dont want to stop practicing them, because i want to really nail it so i can do it at tumbling!. it hurts really bad when i really land an aerial, like the pain goes throughout the front of my ankle and when i land hard i cant walk on it for a couple of seconds, then it just goes back to moderate pain!. my parents told me to stop because i was going to hurt myself (i have really screwed up ankles, like REALLY screwed up) but i told them i was fine and wasnt going to hurt myself!. but now it just hurts all the time!!!! did i screw it up!? and i cant point my toes w/out it hurting!. is that bad!? do i need to go to the doctor!? what do i need to do!? and aspirin doesnt help!. thanks so much for the people who actually read all of this and tried to help!. i appreciate it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It is likely you have a stress fracture!. Especially since you've been doing hard hitting on your ankle!. To do a self-check, press on the bone nearest to your pain!. If this hurts, it is likely you have a stress fracture!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Well you've definitely done something to your ankle! I'd say from the info above - torn ligament or tendon; could have been done by a wrong landing!.
Definitely go see a doctor; the faster you go see him the quicker you'll recover and be able to practice again!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
