Ankle sprain severe

2018-01-07 07:28:30
Hi I got an ankle sprain on the 28th of dec. I rested for two days and started walking/limping soon after as I was on vacation. Although the swelling has come down considerably I am unable to walk normally. And the ankle area still hurts. Also blue green marks have appeared around the foot. I used a kt tape in the meantime. Should I be on antibiotics I joint work tomorrow and need a quick fix
