Old ankle injury

2017-11-04 09:43:18
Ten years ago I was playing, jumping ropes and I landed in my ankle, it twisted inwards. Immediately i became numb and tingled, but it was still bery painful. I couldnt put weight on it, it swelled and bruised for many days. I always took it as a sprained ankle but now im not sure. Every now and then i still feel pain when i put sudden pressure on it, for example when running.

Not all twisting of ankles cause a simple ankle sprain. Bas it is imperative to see a doctor if the symptoms persist for more than a week. A good clinical examination of the ankle along with an xray and possibly an MRI of the ankle will help find the problem.
Next Steps
see a foot and ankle specialist or Orthopaedic surgeon
