Suggest treatment for shooting pain in ankle after fall
Patient: I fell off a chair yesterday, and hurt my ankle . Whenever I try to move it, wiggle my toes, put weight on, there is a shooting pain in my ankle, it is not swollen or bruised though . I dont have great insurance and Im pretty sure you can t do much for a sprain but Im not sure what to do. Doctor: Hello,  Get the xray done on an urgent basis,const nearby hospital till than apply ice pack and diclofenac gel.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
