Numbness After Putting Weight On Ankle. Pain, Loud Pops, Clicks On Rotating. Remedy?

Hi, I was wondering if you could make out what is wrong with my ankle. I put a little too much weight on it missing a stair and since then it's been numb and it feels like it is freezing while the rest of my body is warm. Every time I rotate my ankle all I hear is loud pops and clicks and there is an aching pain on the right side of the ankle. Any help would be great, Thanks.

Welcome to HCM.
There could be some soft tissue injury,most likely muscle sprain.
It occurred due to unequal weight bearing on it.
You have to take nsaid with serretiopeptidase.
Also apply nsaid gel locally.
Avoid any sports activity,climbing stairs,weight bearing on it.
Apply Elastoplast 4 inch (stretchable bandage) on that ankle during movement.
Calcium,b12,d3 and minerals supplement will be helpful.
Consult your family physician for better guidance and management.
