I injured my ankle hiking and thought it was a bad sprain. My ankle swelled up very large and developed bruising on and around the ankle and on the top of my foot. It has been a week but is still tender to the touch and swollen a week later, although not as swollen as before. I can walk on it but sometimes I limp, as it hurts sometimes more than others. The pain wakes me up at night until I elevate it on a pillow and take Advil. The pain can be throbbing or sharp. Should I see a doctor to make sure it s ok? I m 50 years old and am an avid tennis player, so I d like to quickly recover. Thanks.
