Pain in lateral malleolus when touched

2017-07-23 20:24:49
So I was trail running yesterday, and about 5 minutes in I fell on some rocks. I cut up my hands, but those are fine. After getting up, I limped for a little bit, before being able to finish my run. The ball (lateral malleolus) on the outside of my ankle now hurts when I touch it, and the tendon above it feels fairly tight.
