Suggest Treatment For Sprained Ankle And Purple Discoloration Of Toenail

I sprained my ankle but walked on it for 9 days before any treatment. Sence day 1my toes are numb. Now big toes undernail is turning purple. Once was put in boots for 5/6 weeks. Within first week of wearing boot my other back/hip/knee/foot started hurting. Treating dr didnt do anything. Now my knee pops when i walk and my foot(ankle) hurts. Not as bad as sprained one. It seems i walk on the inside of my feet. Ive had pt/medis and now injectsions. Can you please explain all these pain/numbness/discoloring now etc... Thank You

HI
Well come to HCM
Because of the sprain such appearance is very likely and this is happening due to soft tissue injuries and internal bleeding such condition needs complete bed rest and if this is not being taken then condition could be worse and something like that might have happened here, better to have opinion from orthopedic surgeon, may needs some investigations, take care.
