So yesterday in gym class we were playing soccer,and I twisted my ankle (and my bad one that I've had all the issues with this past year at that!).I sat out for a little while,then started playing again (sort of,I didn't run,or kick the ball,so pretty much I walked right around midfield for the rest of class),and after class I got some ice from the nurse.It hurt for the rest of the day,and my mom asked if I thought I should go back to the doctor,and I said,maybe,but I didn't really know because it might stop hurting...NOPE!I woke up this morning and it still hurt,so I wore a brace to school,and I can't walk normally because if I put a normal amount of weight on it then there's a sharp pain.Should I go back to the doctor (I know the answer is probably yes)?I really don't want to have to deal with another ankle injury right now after only being back in dance for a month!If I can't dance anymore,I don't know what I'll do!

You should at least call the doctor and let them know what happened. They will tell you if you need to come in or not. But, don't wait, as you could do more damage.

That's what I figured.

I'll have my mom call tomorrow if my ankle is still bugging me after school.

Since I didn't get home until late tonight,my mom couldn't call,so this means that the absolute earliest I could get into the doctor is Monday!What should I do until then?
