My friend's little boy jumped off her leg and now it's hurting her. what should she do (read description)?

My friend texted me and said she may go to the ER tomorrow. Her 2 yr old son jumped off her leg like a spring board and landed on her ankle. She says it hurts and she is a little swollen. She also said, and I quote, "I literally felt the bone on my leg like bounce straight up and then slam back down". I told her to put ice on it and stay off the leg but is there anything else she can do at home or do you guys think an ER is necessary?

    I would say go to the ER or the doctor to get it checked ASAP. It could be something serious or not, but still do it for the sake of it. If its hurting her when she walks she should see a doctor asap.

    I hope your friend gets well soon!
