Crack Felt On Ankle After Jumping Out Of Forklift. X-ray Showed Sprain. Constant Unbearable Pain. Reason?

yesterday i jumped out of a forklift and onto uneven ground, causing me to roll my ankle. I felt 3 popping/cracks when it happened. I had xrays done yesterday and they said its just a sprain, however i feel that its broken as the pain is unbearable and is constant, not just when i move it or put weight on it. any ideas??

Hi,
From history it seems that as your x-ray is normal there might be having heaving sprain on the part.
Nothing to worry, Take NSAID medicine (like diclophenic, paracetmol combination ) for 3-5 days.
Give complete rest to the part.
Ok and take care.
