You need to see: An e.N.T ear, nose and throat doctor. I would advise against further self treatment.

See your PMD: They will be able to help diagnose you and advise you on the correct treatment. This could be something such as cerumen (ear wax) that responds well to over the counter treatments or a fluid collection that is also easy to treat. Alternatively, this could be an inner ear or conduction problem that requires the expertise of an ENT surgeon. Your pmd will help determine if you need to see a specialist.

Matrix vs. nail fold: Onychia is inflammation of the nail matrix (the part that actually produces the nail). Paronychia is inflammation of the nail fold (the skin that directly borders the sides and the proximal end of the nail); usually due to an infection.

It depends....: On a number of things. Healing time will be affected by concomitant injuries, the conditions of the soft tissues about your ankle and the character and severity of the ankle fracture. Speak with your orthopedic surgeon to get a better idea when return to activity will be possible.
