Foot sprain

Hi! I sprained my left foot 3 1/2 weeks ago, from a bad fall.
It was the lateral aspect of my foot. I went to the E.R. and they said it was not fractured but sprained, and “bruised around the bone, etc.”. Had bruising and swelling, etc.Put me on crutches, ace bandage,and I followed the R.
I.C.E. routine. Well I did notice an improvement over the first 2 weeks, but now in the last week, I do not notice any improvement. I still am having pain, sometimes throbbing intermittently and its very tender. How long does the pain and problems last? I still can’t walk really normal yet. Just curious.. Kathie Perez
