Broken Ankle?

A few months ago, I fell on the side of my right foot on hard, libolium-type flooring, and it crunched…it still hurts when I twist it a little. The stupid gym teacher(yes, I was in gym) told me to ‘shake it off’. So any idea what I did to my ankle? I don’t really thing it was broken since there were no bones jutting out and I was able to limp around the school track for a half hour.

You rolled your ankle. I used to do it all the time. The muscles in your ankle are too weak to support some motions. I would start doing ankle strengthening exercises to avoid that. It’s like a sprain/strain. Just do some exercises, if it still bothers you after a few days, go see a doctor.
