Do I need to see my doctor?
Not normally. If you follow the right advice and take the right medication, your ankle problem should improve over the next six weeks.
If you experience any of the following, you should speak to your doctor.
- Your ankle is misshapen.
- A hot, swollen and tender calf.
- Difficulty putting weight on your leg.
- Pain that’s gets worse and worse.
- Your ankle problem has not improved within six weeks.
