Suggest Medication For Ankle Pain Due To An Injury.

Hi! So, while working I didn t saw one of those indoors steps -just one to divide spaces in the house- and I guess I fell on my right feet, it probably caught my weight but I was fast to recover from the fall itself and in that moment it was hurting a little a bit but no so much to be a bother. I kept working like nothing happened, 5 mnutes later my tension went low and I ran a cold sweat but it went normal as quickly as it came, probably from the scare of fall and that was it. The next morning was when the pain in my ankle was awful enough to make me avoid walking but not enough to stop me from doing it. I ve been treating it with dencorub for a week and its better but not healed fully. What do you think?

First go and get yourself examined by an orthopaedician to rule out a fracture or a ligament injury, which might require some treatment. As you can walk, it doesn't seem to be a fracture, though a hairline fracture cant be ruled out. If its just muscle sprain, then he may prescribe pain analgesics and muscle relaxants.
