Depends: If you bumped yourself more than 7-10 days ago and it Is not better then you might need an x-ray to tell extent of injury

Ankle pain: After a contusion or injury the body will sometimes react with a hematoma or some type of inflammation. If there is still pain in the area you will need to get a proper diagnosis and treatment plan for healing.
