There was no doubt that the ankle definately was not stable and had to be fixed. |

I've never had a bad ankle injury but I did explode the tendons and ligaments in my middle finger on my left hand my senior year of high school, that was two years ago it swelled three-four times it's normal size within 14 hours and I didn't take my ring on that finger off wich was excruciatingly painful digging into my finger my finger pretty much swelled around it but I didn't wanna ruin my ring
and it turned black blue green orange and other various colors in that short time. I never went to see the specialist my doctor recommended for surgery and my finger still is not right just a short time ago I considered it an accomplishment to be able to make a complete fist without that finger popping up or unable to go down all the way, the pain today still sucks and cracking that knuckle is a no no.
So I would recommend seeing someone just in case. better safe then sorry
