How To Treat Pain And Tingling Sensation Of Ankle Caused Due To A Injury?

Hi I fell in my ankle last night (on high heels) I can t put pressure on it, it s very swollen on the right side and slight on the inside. Also quite bruised. I can move my toes no pain (my toes are freezing) it s just my ankle it really hurts. And it s tingling. Our A&e is usualy a 4 hr wait so if it s likely to be a sprain I d rather stay at home. I can slight move my foot just really painful.
