    First of all, I love your name, that's my sons name. Please go get an XRay. There are so many bones in your foot and ankle. Don't take any chances.

      Ice for 20 minutes several times a day and elevate. The more you keep the swelling down the less it will hurt. I am sorry you are going through this, hope it feels better soon.

    Don't take any chances, it could just be badly sprained only an x ray will show. I would advise going to A&E asap and get the correct diagnoses and treatment
