Jogging Ankle Injuries
possible ankle injury? need help on what to do?
okay so i was running, not a full sprint but a hard jog… all of a sudden my right ankle twisted out and snapped. while i was falling to the ground i heard a crack. it hurt a lot then i walked it off and went home. that day it felt okay, the next day i woke up and my outside ankle was swollen. i can move it side to side but once i put my toes down it hurts! i can walk but jogging gives me a little trouble. i cant rest because i need to be in shape for preseason soccer. what do you think it is? and how should i fix it within 2 weeks? thank you
Your ankle probably subluxed. But it’s just an educated guess. Here’s an article describing it

If it is in fact an ankle subluxation it may be serious and may require surgery. If you chose to take a conservative healing approach you may be out for about 4 or more weeks, and conservative treatment is only successful 50 percent of the time.
Id highly recommend going to a doctor to check it out. He’ll know whats best and you can make the right choice from there. Besides it wont hurt to see him
