Why does my ankle hurt when moving?

Patient's Query

I twisted my ankle a couple hours ago , when it happened it hurt a lot, but I managed to get up a few minutes later and walk home. I rested for a few hours, and when I tried to walk again, it hurt real bad. I can’t step on my foot or even move it when I try to. It hurts really bad but when I don’t move it or step on it, it doesn’t hurt at all. The pain is all around the ankle it feels like tension or something blocking my movement.

Answered by Dr. Deep Chakraborty

Probably you have sprained your ankle. Ligaments can get stretched or torn when you bend your ankle too far, and as a result, you may experience pain and swelling. Additionally, it may cause you to have difficulty properly moving your ankle. Rest your ankle, apply ice, elevate it, use compression, and take medication to help with the pain and swelling. Avoid putting weight on it and allow it to heal. If pain persists or worsens, see an orthopedist for further evaluation.

I am a type 2 diabetic patient.four days before a rusted nail pierced my right foot.after that my foot started swelling and i am not able to eat and having nausea and I also have gastric trouble and constipation.i vomited thrice today and I didn’t have my antibiotics or any diabetic tablets.i also have headache and fever

Maybe there is an infection in your foot. When your skin is pierced, bacteria may enter and cause swelling. The symptoms you are having such as feeling sick to your stomach (nausea), throwing up, being unable to have a bowel movement (constipation), headache, and having a high temperature could be due to the infection moving around. Quick treatment with antibiotics and other drugs from a doctor is needed so that you can get well soon.

Hi, about a week ago, I had pain in my left neck to the shoulder and arm. The pain lasted about a day and then the next day was on and off.

The injury that you have described might be a muscle strain or a cervical nerve compression. You should consult an orthopedic doctor or a neurologist for proper diagnosis and therapy. If the pain lasts or increases, do not ignore it.

In this case It's best to consult an orthopedic for detailed evaluation and treatment. Depending on the severity and type of fracture further interventions will be needed such as realignment of the bones (reduction) or surgical intervention.
