Suggest Treatment For Bruised Ankle After An Injury

Hello. I fell about a week ago on my ankle. i fell off a chair and landed on my right ankle inward. I didnt roll it. I had severe swelling, clear from my mid calf all the way to my toes. The swelling has gone down but my ankle keeps bruising. My pain has not gotten any better either. My pain is starting to become fairly constant. I would describe it as sharp, almost stinging pain. I made a doctor appointment for friday. I have been on crutches and the doctor told me to put by old boot back on untill i visit her. I have also been using the RICE method.
