What Causes Numbness From Knee To Ankle?

My ankle turned inwards this Saturday and hasn't shown any signs of swelling or discoloration. However, now my leg on the side from my knee down to my ankle is numb on the side...not from the shine inward, but from the shine outward. What could that mean and what do I need to do to help?

Hi, there!
Its possible that Your shine muscle is stretched and causes numbness.
Use Ibuprofen based gel on Your leg.
Recovery will take few days

I hope this helps
