Yes I hit the bone on the inside of my ankle pushing off on an electric scooter going about 15mph. My foot was planted and struck a bolt on the scooter as it passed. Sounded like a rock hitting it and hurt a lot. Also broke skin and bleed a bit. No swelling yet and everything still works but should I be concerned?
Hello there I have read through your question and would like to tell you that pain swelling are features of a fracture. Also, if you have pain on weight-bearing you may be having a fracture. Sometimes when there is a hairline fracture there may be no swelling. I would advise you to get an X-ray of the ankle joint just to be sure. Meanwhile, you can take an anti-inflammatory like diclofenac to reduce pain. Avoid weight-bearing on the affected ankle. I hope that answers your question. If you have any further questions please feel free to write. Thank you for choosing Chat Doctor.
