You probly broke it!. You need to go to a doctor, i know it costs alot but if you broke it and you dont have it set right its going to get screwed!. I broke mine 3 years ago and i didnt get it set and it still hurts and its hard to move my foot!.
And i dont know if you've been told this but walking on it wont help it will just make the pain much worseWww@Answer-Health@Com

If you cannot put any weight on it, it sounds like you may have broken it!! I broke and dislocated mine once, and it was agony!! it may be a sprain, so ice and rest it and elevate it for a few days, but if it does not go down, and the pain does not go, you need to get to a hospital, because if it is a fracture, it may start healing in the wrong position, and that will cause more problems in the long run!!
