[|Human|] im thirteen and yesterday i was sliding in my socks, slipped on something, and fell down the steps. I hit my right ankle against the wall and then i landed on it weird. It isn t extremely swollen, but it is black and blue all around the ankle and down the side of my foot. I cant walk either. What should i do? is it sprained, twisted, broken, fractured? do you know?
[|AI|]  Hello, If your ankle is black and blue, it is a sign that damage has occurred to the soft tissues (i.e., muscle, tendon, skin, fat) in your ankle. The black and blue appearance of your ankle occurs because tiny blood vessels within the soft tissues (called capillaries) have been torn. Apply ice pack every 20 min. elevate the leg, rest use painkillers like ibuprofen.  If you don't feel better make an X-ray. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
