• Ankle sprain

I rolled my ankle last Friday and it’s been swollen since. It hurt a lot once it happened and I’ve broken that ankle before. It doesn't hurt to walk on or move but is a little tight.

I would suggest going to the nearest urgent care or ER for evaluation and possible X-rays to rule out bony injury. Then they might refer you to follow up with the nearest orthopedic doctor. MRI might be required to rule out ligament injury. Thanks
