How would i tell if my ankle is broken/sprained? I know it sounds stupid but pressure fractures can be sneaky lol. i cant go to the hospital as i have to work early in the morning and i cant miss work. heres the skivy…

I can walk on it
I can move it
very very light bruising
very very little swelling
its a little sore while immobile. not throbbing pain but aching
hurts to move/sway from side to side, when this does happens for example when i pivot while walking or step on a slope it stops me in my tracks and makes me whimper like a little bitch. any nyspeed dr’s out there please lend me some advice. it will be much appreciated

just end it now, it will never be the same.

3

chop it off, its a lost cause

4

If I wanted to know, Id post it up on nyspeed…

where clearly, without an xray Dr. WillyBeen will be able to tell you its just a sprain and you’re being a pussy.

Edit: but i wouldnt need to post it up cuz im not a pussy, and im dr. willybeen

Edit 2: Im not really a dr, so i cant give medical advice, sooo go take some ibuprofen to reduce swelling and pain.

could be a bad sprain or a crack, likely a sprain.
Asprin, ice it for the first 24 hrs.
