16/f. [kinda long sorry]
i play softball for my school, well tonight at my game i was sliding into home and i went to slide. when i did i collided with the catcher. my ankle basically jammed up against her leg, when she went to move to get the ball she stepped on my ankle. It's now all puffy,really red, and super bruised. I was carried off the field. [safe by the way..ha] i ended up playing 1st again next inning, however i was in serious pain, but we had no other 1st basemen. Now, i can barely walk and i can't even put a sock on. However, i've broken my ankle before, and it looks nothing like that. anyone have any idea on what it might be?

I would suggest seeing a doctor if it doesn't feel better soon.
Here are the RICE rules for sprains though. Not a bad idea to start there until you can seek medical attention.
