When I was at college I fell down the stairs and really hurt my ankle but didn't go to the hospital or anything but was still limping. A week later I fell down another few stairs when I was out drinking and hurt my ankle even more but managed to hurt my middle finger while I fell. My ankle isn't to bad now but still gets painful from time to time and my finger gets sore when I put pressure on it. Any ideas what I done? Or if I should go to the doctors even though it was a while ago?

    I suppose the only one who can say yes you need to go hospital and get checked out is you.

    No one on here will be able to diagnose what you have done.

    Icing the sore bits might help and exercising them as well, but because we don't know how bad it is then who knows.

    Is it swollen/bruised

    If you are still having problems, swelling, pain etc then it wouldn't hurt to get it checked. We can't advise you what do as such or advise what injury you might have. If it's bothering you, then yes,
