Around the first week of march. 2014, i injured my left ankle. it has been the 4th time doing it. i think it was a high sprain ankle. it still hurts.

Need more info: You most likely sprained the ligaments that support your ankle and it has not healed since the first incident. I think it would be wise to see an orthopedic surgeon and have him/her examine you and possibly order an x-ray and suggest some form of rehab.

I have somehow injured my left ankle. I'm not sure if it is sprained, or there's a hairline fracture, as it's so painful even to bear weight on it or walk. I am limping very badly. It is very swollen, bruised and tender to the touch. Please help me?
