Ankle Strain

2025-03-10 12:55:36
My ankle(left leg) got twisted inside while playing cricket. It's been a month (34 days) since I am not able to walk properly. I had consulted a general physician after a week of injury, he had given me some medicine(pain killer, calcium, spazogill). I had x-ray also on the same day there is no fracture. Please help me what should I do now.
