What Causes A Popping Noise While Twisting The Leg Followed By Pain?

Bone injury likely.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The popping noise followed by pain during walking is suggestive of a bone injury or at least a muscle tear in the area. This needs an X-ray of the ankle for proper diagnosis.
I recommend you to consult an Orthopedician for proper examination and required investigations.
Meanwhile -
1. Do a cold compress on the area of injury.
2. Avoid weight bearing on the foot.
3. Keep the foot elevated on two pillows while resting.
4. Get some mild pain killers prescribed from your doctor.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
