If it swelled up instantly, and looks like a black and blue softball, you probably tore ligaments.
If you heard it crack, though, I would go get the requisite X-rays.
It has been my experience that the torn ligaments take longer to heal than an actual break.
Good luck.

Only an x-ray can tell you if it's broken. so, you need to put ice on it to keep the swelling down, go to Dr. tom or to Orthopedic Dr. whatever ins. will pay for. Meantime keep it elevated above the heart and use ice, or you will be sorry, it will swell a lot more. 20 min. on and at least 20 min. off so you don't freeze the skin. Good luck.

If you can't walk on it it means it is either broken or fractured or you have a torn ligament. You need to go to doctor before it gets worse. Don't try to walk on it more because it can make it worse.

Ouch! I'm not too sure, you need to see the Dr. it could be sprained
