Help!!!!!!!?

Is it possible to injure your ankle like 10X worse by just participating in P.E class because I had to because i didn't have a note. and Now it hurts all the time and it wasn't that bad but now it hurts really bad and it hurts to walk and move it around and it pops. it even hurts with a brace.plus I have P.E tomorrow and I don't have a note. It wasn't that bad before and now it really hurts it seems like each day it gets worse.I am also 14 and in middle school
Answer:
Sounds like a bad sprain, which can be worse than a break.
See a doctor and have him/her to write you a note for school. You may want to get crutches so you don't put your full weight on your injured foot. Sprains have to heal on their own and it can take 3-4 weeks depending on the severity. When you're on your feet wrap the sprain in an Ace bandage but not too tightly so you don't cut off the circulation. When OFF your feet apply ice to the injury for 15 minutes at a time every hour. If using an icepack or raw ice make sure to wrap it in a small towel so you don't freeze the outer skin. When sitting, elevate your leg to help get the swelling down and take aceteminophen (if your body tolerates it) for pain.
Trust me, I've sprained both ankles and both knees at carious times in my life. Once I was on crutches in the winter and that really sucks ! Heal fast, feel better.~ a mom who has been there
get a note from ur parents or have them call the doctor and have the doctor email ur skwl
