Hello .. Tonight I went to let my dog out and I slipped sandals on that were too big . I somehow slipped out the door twisting my ankle and then stepping on the dog s tie out cord twisting / rolling it again . I heard a popping/cracking and immediately was in horrible pain. My husband and daughter came to my rescue to help me inside . I felt like I was in a twilight zone and was going to faint . Which I did faint from the pain and came to on the couch and was sweating like crazy !! My foot is killing me now . My daughter had rolled her ankle in softball so I put her brace on it, elevated it , iced it , and took a some Advil . I can t flex my foot but able to a small amount of pressure on it to walk . The pain is still throbbing 3 hours later. It s starting to swell and a bruise . So.. My question is. Is there anything else I can do to relieve some of the pain ?? At what point so I consider having it X-rayed ?
