Kicked the diving board... ouch!?!
Question: Kicked the diving board...... ouch!.?
Okay...... so earlier today I was going to jump off our diving board, but there was stuff in the was so I went to kick them out of the way and ended up kicking the diving board really hard instead......
the inside ankle bone I think the fibula...... (its the bone that sticks out at the ankle from the inside (medial side)...... anyways...... its swollen and bruised right at the top of where the bone sticks out...... it hurts to touch and to turn my ankle in, point my toes, flex my foot, and go in a circle...... it hurts my ankle a little when i move my big toe......
so, should I go to the doctor tomorrow.? I've sprained both my ankles before by twisting, but I've never smacked the bone/ankle into a concrete object ...... so idk what I did to the joint...... just a bruise, could it fracture, or just sprain the ligaments.......? any advice.?.?.? Thanks!Health Question & Answer

I definitely go to the doctors, i got hit on that bone by a hockey stick at full force, i tried to get on with everyday life and ignore the pain, however eventually i gave in and went to see a doctor and a physio and turned out by ignoring it i did more damage than the hockey stick, and i been out of action for 4 months so far!Health Question & Answer
