Answer #1

That makes me think about my ankle being broken. It didn’t mend properly and I still have pain with it, even though it happened over a year ago. Like me, you might have a bit of inflammation and swelling. It’s difficult to bring down, as I still have swelling. Even with physiotherapy, it doesn’t help much. If I were you I’d get it checked out with your doctor. It may have been slightly worse than a sprain. There could be torn muscles. I’m not a doctor, but from what it sounds like and looks like, this should have been checked out long ago. I’m not nagging at you or blaming you, but this does make it a lot harder to heal. Hopefully your doctor will be able to fix the damage done to your ankle before it becomes worse.
