[|Human|] I was hit with a sofball on the inside of my ankle two days ago (bottom of leg bone). It hurt immediatly but I figured I just bruised it. After playing softball tonight it is now swollen, tingling, hurts to move and put weight on. Could it be fractured?
[|AI|]  Hi there. Thanks for your question at Chat Doctor. Rest, Analgesics, Ice and bandage application usually help relieve the pain and swelling associated with ankle injuries.However, if the pain still persists 48 hours after injury, which gets aggravated on standing or walking, it needs further evaluation. I would suggest you to be seen by a physician in person since your pain still persists. Based on the examination an X-ray may be required to rule out fractures. It is also top to be noted that a severe soft tissue injury (ligaments and muscles) can cause pain as severe as pain associated with a fracture. Hope this helps. All the best. Regards.  Chat Doctor.
