[|Human|] Hi, i have always suffered back ankles. I have had one ankle reconstruction but on the weekend i sprained what i class as my good ankle though i have sprained it in previous years but no reconstruction on this one. My concern is i have a lot of bruising and only slight swelling but i am always getting a numb feeling and pains and needles in it on and off and At night it does ache and throb. I havent had this sensation before. Is this normal. I haven t been to Dr and no X-rays
[|AI|]  Hi, I value your concern regarding the symptoms. I have gone through your symptoms, and in my opinion your symptoms are due to swelling following injury, first and foremost keep the limb elevated on two pillows, take tab paracetamol 500 mg three times a day, and get an X-Ray done, if you can send the X-Ray I would be able to tell you if there is any bony injury and the treatment to be followed further. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health. Special note-Any medication prescribed needs to be taken after consultation with your personal doctor only.
