Ankle Sprain cant bend toes

Posted , 2 users are following.

I fell over at work on Tuesday and subsequently sprained my ankle and my neck. I am using RICE to try and reduce pain/injury. It has been 3 days now and I cannot bend my toes (without using my hands). Is there some damage to the nerves? It is like the signals are not getting to my toes?

    Have you had your ankle and neck looked at by a doctor? Sounds like you may have done some ligament or tendon damage. Also it may be a swelling issue.
