I was at the gym today doing step-ups on a work bench and I stepped down, my ankle twisted and I fell hard and I hear a loud "crack" come from my ankle. I can still move it okay but it hurts moving side to side. I did NOT have an x-ray done, but I did see a doctor and he said he doubted it was broken from his exam but what else can sort a crack sound? Could a pulled tendon do that or could hold something actually snapped inside soft tissue wise? or could this purely be the bones cracking but not breaking?

Do i I don`t know enjoy asma or something?

The noise you heard might hold been the result of overextending the various joint that make up the ankle and foot- much the same agency as you crack a knuckle in your finger, though being more numerous and larger, the combined jingle would be bigger. Had something been seriously injured, your ankle would be swollen to secure the joint and it would be a lot more than just sore. The bones themselves don't "crack" within that sense- you break one and you don't usually have to ask. Since it hurts to move it side to side, it sounds like you overextended tendons and ligaments on one side, while shortening and crunching things on the other. The overextended side would pop joint, and between that and the overextended tendons and ligaments snapping back, it could make rather a loud pop. And they would still be complaining today, as there was some injure done to them in the process. Believe it or not, the ankle is really hard to break, as it is made up of numerous small bones basically so you have the extra flexibility in the combined for such an accident. Lot of noise, little actual lay waste to.
