10 Broken Ankle Symptoms

Symptom #3: Inability to Walk
Breaking bones in the lower part of the body can be the hardest to deal with. This is because we are unable to put pressure on them and are, therefore, unable to walk. If you have broken your ankle, you should expect it to be sometime before you are able to walk properly again.
If you do suspect that you have broken your ankle then you really should not try walking on it anyway. Doing so can cause even more damage and make a full recovery less likely. It is best to wait for medical assistance to come. If that is not possible, then try to make it to an emergency room while putting as little pressure on the ankle as possible.
