A member asked:
I fell on my ankle forwards.no swelling on the day but swelled up next evening. 3 weeks later swelling better but still there, should i be concerned?

Be checked: I would recommend you be checked just to make sure it is not a more serious injury such as a subtle fracture. Particularly since you still have some degree of pain and swelling 3 weeks after an injury.
