A member asked:
I bruised my ankle pretty badly 2 months ago after a fall. the bruise itself went away within 3 weeks, but still have very slight discoloration (you can hardly see it) in that spot and some very mild tenderness still. do i need to see my gp for that?

Muscle sprain: Ankle injuries can heal more slowly than other locations because of the constant and varied movements it makes. AS long as it does not hurt to walk on it and you can move it completely, then you do not need to see a Dr. Avoid touching the tender area so that it heals completely.
