Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I hit the inside of my ankle on a piece of metal 10 days ago. It hurt at first, then I forgot about it until about an hour after I hit it I saw it was swollen. It is still swollen and bruise. It hurts to touch it. It doesn t hurt to walk. I iced it the first day. It is still swollen after 10 days
HI Thank for asking to HCM I really appreciate your concern and let me tell you that the chances of fracture would be likely and this need to be ruled out and for this better to get done the x-ray of ankle joint and keep the leg in elevated position, hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
