I have been kicked on the outside of my ankle which is now swollen, i can bare weight on it but it is limited. ankle movement/rotation is limited also?

Kicked ankle: An injury to the ankle can involve an injury to the ankle bone with a bruise or a fracture to the malleolus. There are tendons that course through there, a neuro vascular bundle, and a joint space. You will need to stay off it and have X-rays taken. RICE treatment with crutches are also advised.
