I just fell down on road while walking. And I realized some pain at my ankle. After that I am not able to walk for 2 day. But from yesterday I am able to walk. Will I need to do an x-ray or it's absolutely fine. Now there is very little pain there.

Dear lybrateuser, - Take rest, do not put weight on the affected limb for 2-3 days - take an over the counter pain relief tablet after meals if pain is there -it progress is good after 2-3 days, no pain or swelling on walking then you may not require an x-ray - however a physical examination by your local doctor is advisable to rule out any problem.

Most probably it's an ankle sprain but it's always better to get it examined by an orthopaedic doctor and if needed get an x-ray done.
