Depends: The answer depends on the extend of the injury. "broken" typically means a bone was fractured. There a 3 bones that make up the ankle - tibia, fibula and talus. Keep in mind, soft tissue is also disrupted with fractures in the ankle. See a doctor and ask the what your prognosis is. Don't try to treat it yourself; have it checked!
