I want to know is there something I should do for my swollen ankle before going to a doctor? I asked for a check up on my foot to make sure its alright. would they ask for an X-ray ? should I prepare anything ?
I was going down stairs in a train station when trying to read signs. the stairs ended and I didn't realize.
my foot got inverted inwards, i felt like some thing cracked in there. and a weird line from my ankle to my sole was pulled.
I stood up right away and walked the pain away as possible, was with other people didn't want to make them worry, but the pain wasn't worse at first it got worse few minutes later.
I was on a trip and couldn't check with a doctor. I was walking on that foot "with pain" for 5 hours straight after it got hurt.
after that each night I would use the computer I'd place my foot on the next chair and place frozen towels over it. (frozen towels: are wet towels placed in the freezer)
I did that for 2 maybe 3 days, then I was on another trip with my family and had to walk on it carrying luggage again for 2 days.
Nov 11, is when I got my sprained ankle. now I'm home and have made an appointment after 11days
the swollen has become less, the pain comes and goes depending on the position.
my appointment is this coming Wed.
let me know if I should be expecting any Questions ... or should I prepare anything
Thank you
