A member asked:
I rolled my ankle really hard and there is a wide lump in the middle of my fibula. what can i do?

Have an xray done: Ankle sprain often result in fractures of the ankle. An xray is the only way to determine if your fibula is fractured. You should see podiatric or orthopedic foot and ankle surgeon for treatment.
