Call,the urgent care: Loosen the wrap on your ankle slightly, as it appears to be too tight, limiting circulation. Try ice pack to control local swelling, and use ibuprofen 200mg tabs (unless contraindicated) 3 tabs every 4 hours for,pain until your orthopoedist visit tomorrow . Notify the urgent care where you were seen of your issues tonight
