Tarsal tunnel syndro: The swelling can squeeze nerves in your foot that go mostly to the forefoot and toes. Elevate it and use ice to reduce the swelling 9even tho it feels cold already. Use water ice for 20-30" at a time 3-4 times a day. Do check for a fracture. It can happen agin. You may have a torn ligament that allows this to reoccur.

Not time like now.: If you have not already been to a specialist to have you ankle evaluated, it's time. After a week, your symptoms should have reduced. You need to have it seen and soon.
