I was strunk on the ankle bone 5 weeks ago by a line drive. The injury site immediately began to swell and turn color. I was able to walk on it with a little pain so i figured nothing was really wrong. Did the whole RICE process for a few days. Swelling went down a good bit. However the point of impact is still very tender to touch, still bruised looking, moderate swelling and now I m unable to put full weight on heal and toes hurt a little. Did a good bit of walking today and now the entire ankle and foot are swollen like a balloon. Does this require an ER visit or should I hold off to see orthopedist in 4 days. Thanks Brandy
