please help severe ankle pain?
I fell down the stairs yesterday and my ankle hurt really bad. I laid down and put ice on it and stuff like that. It still hurts today and I can't put any pressure on it or it hurts really bad. It isn't swollen or bruised but could it still be a sprain?or something else?

You could have sprained it yes, but you may have also fractured it. If it isn't bruised/swollen, then it is more likely to be a sprain, so you just need to rest it. But I would advise going to the hospital and getting an x-ray done, just in case!

Even if you don't see any swelling, there can be some inside the joint. You should really get some x-rays to rule out a fracture. Either way, you really need to get advice from a doctor and just make sure that its not something real serious.
