Should I go get an Xray, Ankle pain?!
Question: Should I go get an Xray, Ankle pain!?
Last night I accidentally hit myself in the ankle with my golf club!. Yeah I know stupid right, I was walking and swinging it and smashed it!. The pain was excrusiating at first and I felt naseaus!. I have a bump on the bone!. Last night it throbbed and I limped, then I went to bed!.
This morning I could barely walk on it!. Now I can walk on it, but as soon as I have it in a bent position with any pressure it aches and I feel nauseaus!.
Could this be a bad bruise, or should I get an Xray!. I have only ever broke my wrist and I fractured it too, that was pretty painful, so I keep thinking maybe this is just a bruise, I do not want to waste money goint to the Doctor but I also do not want to not go and do more damage!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes it could be a bad bruise, and it could worse!. Going to the doctor should not be an option!. When you are hungry do you eat!? Of course you do, medical attention should not be a matter of "is it that bad"!. When you have a problem, seek medical attention!. There are to many things going on in your ankle to put off medical attention, you walk on them every day!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
can you bend it!? Flex it!? if you cannot put pressure on it i would go get the xray atleast if it's not fractured you may have but bruised the bone or chipped the bone!. tibia bones are very weak and cannot withstand a whole lot of pressure!. So i would get the xray before it gets worse then a doc can wrap it up for u!. Or go get a ace bandage and wrap it yourself to relieve pain and pressure!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
