A member asked:

What should i do if i can't put weight on my foot? i rolled my ankle yesterday and i still cannot put my foot on the ground without a load of pain. my only option to get around is to hop and keep my foot off of the floor at all times?

The pain is a protective mechanism for any area to prevent further damage. You could go see a doctor for evaluation if the injury is really bad or you could use a supportive equipment like crutches or walking stick to move around, if you have to, allow your ankle to rest and heal; ace wrap may also help. The problem I have is that it is difficult to know the extent of damage withoug being examined
