Suggest Remedies For Swollen And Bruised Ankle Post An Injury

i WAS WALKING UP A VERY STEEP CONCRETE DRIVEWAY AND I STARTED TO RUN UP AND I HAD A SUDDEN PAIN IN THE BACK OF MY KNEE JUST BELOW MY CALF. IT FELT LIKE SOMETHING GAVE WAY IN THE CALF. MY ANKLE HAS SWOLLEN AND BRUISING HAS SHOWN UP ON THE INSIDE OF MY ACKLE. I ALSO HAVE BRUISING ON MY LOWER CALF AREA ON THE SAME LEG, MY RIGHT ONE. I AM RESTING AND WALKING WITH THE AID OF A WALKING STICK. THIS IS MY 5 DAY DAY SINCE MY INJURY.
