Slipped and hurt my ankle
Hi,
I had slipped last night in my kitchen and have hurt my right ankle and toes.
Although there is no swelling, But I am in a lot of pain. Pain is there when I try to move my leg.
I want to consult a doctor but I am pretty sure that the doctor will ask me to go for a x Ray. So can I go for a x Ray first, coz in my condition going to the doctor first and then to x-ray and then to doc again will be difficult
