A member asked:

Good day sunday 14 th feburary 2021 because of some light rain over night our entertainment area had a slight mist of water and this is how i slipped with my right foot under my body. i can walk in it with a limp. should have this extracted or not?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Incomplete question : Falling on one’s foot from slipping is something to take with great concern. your body weight fell on top of your ankle from your description. I assume you also had localized swelling associated with the pain. You can try home program with anti inflammatory medication like Aleve or ibuprofen, icing 24-48hours followed by contrast bath. Given the difficulty walking I would seek medical attention
