If there is severe swelling and difficulty in walking get an x ray as early as possible and consult an orthopedist. If there is no fracture nothing to worry. Sprained ankle should be managed conservatively with or without plaster depending on severity
Next Steps
Consult an orthopedist
Health Tips
Apply ice packs, analgesics, compression bandage and rest. Hot fomentation and massage is contraindicated
