Hi I twisted my ankle about a month ago and still feel some tendernesss around the anke if I press on it. The only thing new is now when I am standing or sitting occasionally I feel a burning sensation around the ankle area towards the back of my leg. Should I go in for x rays or treat it with ice again?
Hello, It looks from your details that you had a sprain of ankle. The present tenderness may be due to presence of mild edema post healing, which will gradually disappear. This pain may take 2 more weeks to disappear. The burning may also be a part of healing process. At this stage there is no need of doing ice fomentation. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care
