If your ankle got twisted while playing and there is swelling, it is usually due to a **ligament strain or sprain**. Since the swelling reduces with icing, it is generally a good sign. For now, continue **rest, ice application, compression, and keeping the foot elevated**. If you are able to walk and put weight on the foot without severe pain, an X-ray may not be immediately necessary. However, if you have **severe pain, difficulty in walking, tenderness over the bone, or the swelling persists**, then it is better to get an **ankle X-ray** done before your visit. You can come for consultation and we will examine the ankle properly and guide the further treatment.
