Can you walk on it?: See your doctor or nurse if: ●You cannot put weight on the leg with the injured ankle ●Your ankle looks deformed or crooked ●Your ankle is unstable (for example, it gives out while you are climbing stairs) It's also best to see a doctor or nurse if you are not sure how serious the injury is.
