Can A Twisted Ankle Cause Pain On Bearing Weight On It?

I fell yesterday evening. The left ankle rolled outward. I heard a pop. There is swelling on the outer ankle bone. It is tender to the touch. ROM is limited when moving foot to outside. I can bear weight on it with some pain. I have nausea when bearing weight. No bruising present.

Hi,Thanks for your query.After going through your query I came to know that you got injury your ankle . Your ankle hurts when you move your ankle.In my opinion it is sprain but you should got your x-ray done to rule out fracture. Its treatment is rest to part(immobilization). Putting ice is useful .
