the swelling is the same size as it was when i first did it and i can walk on it but even a ankle brace doesn't help. any one?
Answer:
definatly sounds like a sprained ankle to me or possibly torn ligaments. i would suggest going back to an "Orthopedic" Doctor he may want to perscribe some physical therapy. i would also try taking anti inflammatories for the swelling and pain (ex. advil and motrin)
Go to another doctor or to the hospital the swelling should of went down by now and that doctor should of treating it for you.
ice will make the swelling go down. just do that about once a day
Go see an orthopaedic specialist. I used to injure my ankle frequently playing soccer and I was back on it within a week and finally the last time I didn't I wasn't able to rebound so quickly and it turned out I had stretched all my ligaments in that area. I went to physical therapy to strengthen the muscles around the area and if that didn't help they wanted to replace the ligaments. Fortunately I am doing well 5 years later and no surgery.
See an orthopedist. Was it X-ray ed two months ago? Sometimes slight fractures can be missed on an x-ray or you could have torn a tendon or ligament.
