[|Human|] I slipped and fell back on my right foot four days ago, it was x-rayed nothing broken but had severe damage to ligaments on both sides, it has been iced and elevated on and off I elevate it each night take Ibruprofen as directed, it is still badly swollen ankle to the calf I was told to walk on it but no compression bandage, is the swelling normal after four days ?
[|AI|]  Hi.I've gone through your query and I can understand your anxiety. Swelling of ankle for 4 days after fall could be a sign of Joint sprain or ligament Injury. It is usually reported & nothing to panic about it as the X-ray pictures shows no fracture. I advise you to, - continue the analgesics (Acetaminophen) twice daily - add tab. Seropeptidase thrice daily in order to reduce the swelling + tab. Panto 40 mg along with each dose- Thrombophob gel for local application- give good rest to the affected area & don't over strain it - keep Ice pack & elevate the foot end Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care.
