Ankle ramblings

My ankle is still giving me rather a bit of pain. Specifically the right hand side, the main joint. Although common sense is saying "if you'd broken something you'd know," I'm really starting to wonder if maybe I have broken something. I mean, most of the bruising has gone down, but there's still this one particular area of pain.

So...what do I do? Go to A&E, ask for an X-ray, find out the worst - or the best? End up on sticks for a while, maybe?

Which wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have Connotations coming up in just over a week with a mile walk from the hotel I'm staying in to the convention hotel.

Meh.

It could be there's damage to connective tissues. Talk to docs asap. If you leave it, the damage can be permanent. Also get their advice about whether to use heat/cold packs and/or support bandages.
