Okay, I know I need to go see an orthopedic. But I'd just like some speculation on what my problem is.
A couple yrs ago I stepped off a porch onto a patio stone covered by leaves. My right heel has about half off the stone, so I rolled my ankle and went tumbling. It was painful and swollen for a few days. Iced it down and took ibuprofen.
But it still hurts. I do much exertion, and I'm limping like an old man. It's not debilitating, just painful. The pain is centered directly in front of the "outside ankle bump" on the right foot. Forgive my lack of medical terminology. It doesn't swell at all, just hurts. I sometimes wear an ankle brace. Most days I'll use a heating pad on it after I come home from work.
But what the devil could be causing pain years after the incident?
