Second opinion on fracture
I broke me ankle 10 days ago. I went straight to the emergency room within 30 minutes. They asked where it hurt, at the time it was my ankle. They only xrayed my ankle, to find out it was a clean break of my fibula bone and my ankle bone. 2 days ago i was instructed to wear a boot to walk on it. That same day i took my foot out of the sling and it was purple from all around my foot up my calf. Should i go to a different hospital for a second opinion? Ive fallen twice since the break onto my foot
