Sprained ankle with no pain

2017-07-15 01:39:19
I do have peripheral neuropathy but believe I should still feel something. It was a pretty bad sprain and did go see a podiatrist. However 2 weeks later and I still have not felt pain. Not even the throbbing when it was extremely swollen and I couldn't walk on it. Not sure if I should be worried or go with it. My ROM is improving.

Due to peripheral neuropathy (or charcots joint)  ur not feeling pain.  As ur not able to walk ,Get a x ray done to rule out fracture. If swelling , give limb elevation.
