Injuries - January 2007

4-5 weeks ago I was hanging curtains and lost my footing on the chair I was standing on, I fell backward and hit the front of my ankle on the chair seat as I went down. It hurt a lot, but I iced it and it wasn't immediately swelling. I had and still have full range of motion, and it didn't hurt any worse when I walked. It only hurts more when I sit indian-style with that ankle on the bottom pushing on the floor (my favorite sitting position of course). By the next it developed a NASTY bruise and some swelling. The bruise lasted 3 weeks. The swelling went down to a small bump which is where it hurts to push on it. The bump now comes and goes, it gets bigger if I wear tight socks. I'm concerned that it still hurts there and it's odd that the bump comes and goes... if I go to a doctor can they even do anything? What type of injury do you think it is? It doesn't seem like a sprain or fracture... How long should it take to heal? Thank you for any educated advice you have!

If so did you fall into it? Are you still there or did you manage to get out? Did it hurt? Have you a bump, bruise or any other visible injury? If none of the about what the fcuk was it all about then?
