Sprained or Broken?
3 days ago my boyfriend’s ankle bent sideways while playing baskeball. he said right after it happen his ankle got swollen right away. however he continued to play on it but ever since he got home he has been in bed. He says he feels his ankle lock and unlock and he can’t walk. his whole foot is swollen and he has red dots around his ankle and up his leg. The pain and swell starts from his calf muscle down. Is this a bad sprai or could it be broken? Please respond. Thank you

First of all whether it is sprained or broken, most importantly, it is very much injured. Why hasn’t he been to a doctor? Ligament that are injured are just as important as bones. Tell him to get to a doctor ASAP
