A member asked:
I twisted my ankle yesterday and it isn't yet gone and it isn't swelling?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A few days: if you twisted your ankle, common description is a "rolled" ankle, severity varies, pain may persist is relatively minor sprains, and it may take several days to improve. If the ankle feels unstable, has bruising, has worsening pain or persists for more than 5-7 days, then see your local physician.
