Hi, I fell on Dishwashing Liquid two weeks ago now and hurt my ankle a bad Sprain is what I was told. X Ray came back as no broken bones but I still can't walk. It's really cold lack of circulation up my leg. It doesn't hurt till I try walk it feels numb like pins & needles when I rest if flat on the floor with minimal weight. Just wondering what if could be? I'm frustrated :(
