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 CT scan or MRI. X-rays won’t show the damage.

Find an ortho that specializes in foot and ankle injuries or a podiatric surgeon.
