Pain in ankle back bone while sitting
I fell down from bike 2 months before and I had done an X Ray of my left foot front and back due to swelling. Consulted a physician with the X Ray report and found no fracture or cracks. I took painkillers for 8 days and the pain gone away. Now since last 15 days I feel that when I try to sit on the floor , I feel pain in backside of ankle (near the vein). also when sits for 10-15 mins and while waking up I feel pain in Knee. Feels like muscle sprain.
Please advice what medications do I follow.

Looks like you might have sprained ligaments around ankle joint.Due to pain in ankle,your gait might have changed which may be cause of knee pain.Confirmation would require a detailed physical examination and further investigations as per finding of physical examination.I would suggest you to visit nearest orthopaedic surgeon or can consult me on practo.
