question: I rolled my ankle stepping into a hidden hole. It knocked the wind out of me and I went down. Now almost 72 hours later, my foot is still swollen, tender, bruised, tingles and is numb in some spots. I have been wearing a walking boot when getting around and keeping it elevated above my heart most of the time while icing it for about 15-20 min hourly (except while sleeping). What more could I do to help the swelling? I can t afford to go to the doctors and I am doing everything they had me do in the past.
