I was out playing a community soccer game and I think I screwed my ankle all to hell. It happened in the first play but I kept playing because the pain wasn't too bad. It doesn't feel sprained or broken, but it feels like my ankle isn't sitting in joint completely. I still have good range of motion, but the front left part of where my leg connects to my foot feels like there's something displaced inside it. I tried bending it firmly to see if it would pop and get back to where it's supposed to be, hitting it with a closed fist didn't help either. Any advice, aside from going to a doctor?

 Sit down. Put your feet out in front of you, in the air. Look at them both. Is there any puffiness on the upper portion or sides of your foot? Do your ankles look the same width from knob to knob? Is there any bleeding or bruising under the skin? Might have crunched a ligament. Or stretched one a bit. It's even vaguely posible you chipped the end of your leg-bone. Take an anti-inflammatory, some pain killer, hydrate and elevate it overnight. If it's the same or worse in the morning, see a Dr for an x-ray. /Not a Dr /Didn't even stay in a Holiday Inn last night |
You must have a quick link to that pic on your desktop. How many times have you posted it in the last 30 days?

No bleeding or blood under the skin but now that I've really looked at it there is a bit of swelling...
