foot swelled on outside

Today I stepped on a stone and my foot twisted and I heard a pop.
Now my foot is swollen and a hard knot has formed on the outside of my right foot. It there something broken or just a sprain?
I have put ice on it.
some pain. What should I do?

    WIth out examining you, I can not say exactly, but there is an injury to either the ligaments or bone, or both. You should see a podiatrist or orthopedist soon and until then use crutches, ice and compression.
