Hmmm!.!.!.I would go and see a doctor, as your ligaments and tendons sounds like they are loose, which in the long run could cause more injuries!. They may refer you to a physiotherapist to get some exercises to strengthen it!!

Keep it elevated, and ice it, and most importantly REST it!

Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
