What Causes Pain In Ankle/foot With Little Swelling?
I am a 12 year old girl and today i had gym class. we played volleyball and my friend Lexi was going to get the ball and my other friend Logan tripped her on accident. Logan fell and lexi stomped on my foot and then she fell. when she fell she knocked me down but when i landed my foot was still like i was walking but my body was laying down. it popped , no lie about 8 times and then i could not walk 4 25 min. at least . then gym was over and all day i have had the same pain in my foot/ankle. when i am sitting down and turn my foot just a little it hurts bad.it feels like when i do that that there is like a knot in it but no brusied, just a little ,very little swelling. what happened? Did i fracture it or pull a muscle or what? and do i need to go see a doctor?
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to a strained ankle. I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain. I also suggest using cold compresses for local application. I recommend to maintain the leg immobilized to prevent further damage.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
