Hi I fell down the stairs at work yesterday and hurt my ankle, it swelled up to the size of a golf ball and the first aiders who looked at it couldn't make out what I had done to it. I had an ice pack put on it and took paracetamol for the pain. Its been 24 hours now and the swelling has gone down a bit but not much and it still hurts the same. What should I do?

The injury will take time to heal. just get properly investigated for any fracture or ligament injury. and take appropriate treatment.
