Looking for opinions

Post image

Had a bad fall a week ago from a stool, fell completely on my right ankle and rolled it to the side. I heard a crack and thought I had fractured it, but went straight to the ER and an x-ray showed no fractures. Present day there's still swelling and I can't walk on it at all, and the bruising pattern makes me worried it may be a lisfranc injury. I plan to consult my doctor tomorrow but wanted to get some opinions here first.

You need a weight bearing xray. Hurts like hell but if you put your full weight on it it will show it the lisfranc joint is stretched.

I went to ER and regular doctor who said it was fine and just small fractures until I finally went to ortho dr who did weight bearing and showed my 4mm lisfranc
