I sparained my ankle pretty badly about 9 weeks ago. The doctor said it would take about 3 to 5 weeks to heal

But now, it is still very swollen and painful right on the ankle bone and in the front of my ankle there is a bump and it is very painful. What could be wrong with it to cause this?

Is it possible that the x-ray they took the day that I sprained it didn't show a possible fracture do to the amount of swelling?

And will an x-ray show any other problems that may be there......ligaments, tissue....

My ankle is also very stiff and I am getting sharp pains that go up the side of my calf, almost like a charlie horse. When it first happened, I did stay off of it, elevated and iced it like the Dr. said.

See a doctor, get a second opinion. In the mean time are you staying off your ankle completely? You need to maintain general advice for the care of a bad sprain with is Ice, elevation and remaining off it. also try some ibuprofen which is an anti inflammatory. Above all though consult a doctor.
