    Is this a sprain or a fracture?

    I sprained my ankle 3 months ago while playing soccer and went to the orthopedist about a month later.. they took an xray etc. doctor said it was more like a degree 2 ankle sprain. but he also said it could be a fracture since he saw a very small bone chipped off in the xray. so its been 3 months and i cant even run, because it starts hurting after running about 10 feet...but i have no problem walking

    so do you think this is an ankle fracture? or does it just take a lottt of time to heal a degree 2 ankle sprain since the body's whole weight is pressured on my ankle..

    Hi soccer7,
    Can you be more specific with where the ankle pain is located? How did you hurt your ankle and what were you doing at the time ? Which aspect of running hurts? The pushing off or the landing ? Can you squat with your feet flat on the floor without pain? Does it still swell up ?
