    You need to see a good orthopedic surgeon for evaluation. Your ankle is something that will affect you the rest of your life. Make sure you see an EXCELLENT doctor!

    Ok first thing is do not put weight on your ankle!  No walking!  Use crutches when you need to use the washroom.  Most of us on here with breaks had to be non weight bearing for at least 6 weeks.  Sit or lie down and elevate your ankle.  Put ice on it for periods of about 20 minutes a few times a day.  It needs lots of rest to heal.  And the other comment is for sure too.  See a good doctor!  You might need a surgery.  With or without surgery, you will need a cast or special boot.  Good luck!
