Question: What did I do to my ankle, is it broken!?
What did I do to my ankle, is it broken!?
I got kicked in the back/ outside part of my foot earlier playing soccer!. i heard a pop, and i fell down and it hurt pretty bad!. the main part is right above my ankle on the outside, and its about the size of a golf ball, and swoolen about 3 inches long!. I can wiggle my toes, and i know it isn't a compound fracture, but thats all i know!. I can't put pressure on it much, or take a step!. it also hurts to move my foot around!. I can't go to the doctors, and I'm only 15 and my family is broke!. How can I make it better quick, and what is wrong!? Should I try stretching it or rest it!? Thanks a lot!. Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
you dfanitly didnt break it but its probably a bad sprain!. i would suggest icing it 2 times a day for 20 minutes and try to stay off of it!. you should keep it elevated and use a ankle support it can help with injury and help prevent other injuries!.

i think you messed up your Achilles Tendon what you should do is wrap it in an Ace bandage and ice it for at least a week, don't go to school!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Its not broke because you can wiggle your toes!. all u should do is stay off of ur foot and make sure you keep ice on ur foot!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
