A member asked:

First time roller skating: left ankle is bent under no pressure. under pressure it makes me lose balance when using my left leg. what should i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need more info: It sounds like you probably badly sprained your ankle. It is important to consult with your family physician who can rule out a fracture and if not fractured give you good advice and/or medication to speed the healing.
