    well, it could just be a sprain but maybe u fractured it. You should tell your parents to take you to get some x rays if the pain continues after a couple of weeks. Just put some ice on it. If you get a cast it will probably be on for 2 weeks. Nothing bad.

    I badly sprained my ankle about 3 weeks ago. I was in a hurry going down the stairs, lost my balance and landed on a bad side of my left foot, causing my left ankle to be stretched going on the inside. The first 48 hours were excruciating and the pain was un-believable. I've never had a serious ankle injury before.

    So I immediately treated it using the RICE method. The following day, the bruising and swelling were so horrible. I found out that I got a second degree sprain and immediately panicked after that. I had a football game on that week and it been looking forward to it because I've been training for rt. I had teammates that had similar injuries and it took them months to fully recover, some of them stopped playing altogether. So I kinda had a short-term depression because I can't imagine myself not being able to run and play sports anymore.

    Because I was so desperate to recover again, I contacted a lot of people that I know who do sports and asked them if they had similar injuries. One friend of mine, from the boy's football team in my university, told me about H.E.M. Ankle Rehab. I got a copy 4 days after I got injured. I immediately read and followed what was instructed and felt improvement on the first day. I was able to walk a bit, but I was in pain.

    A couple of days after that, the swelling and bruising were subsid-ing significantly and on the fourth day, I was walking comfortably again. Although I've had felt a bit of stiffness, I continued doing what was instructed. My sister was surprised that I have recovered this fast. I told her about this book and was shocked on how effective the procedures were. I'm just so happy that this book was shared to me and how effective it is.

    ok well i'm not a doctor. but it seems like you had a stinger and it's just a rolled ankle. a sprain is painful and doesn't stop after 30 minutes. Just ice it and stay off of it and stretch it. Time heals. That's all you can really do. Take tylonel.

    Source(s): experience. lots and lots.

    if possible walk you are able to probable only get a wrap or a element to slip on your foot on an identical time as your strolling. I used those as quickly as I had a sprained ankle and it healed particularly quickly!
