Answers:
I broke mine 2 y ago. Had surgery and plates/pins to repair.
When you read aloud vertical, I hope you are not meaning you are walking on it. If it have only be 3 weeks you should still be on crutches and not have counterbalance on it. If you are trying to walk on it, that could be the problem.
If you are on crutches, and it hurts, try bending the knees holding it up a little difficult behind you when you put your foot, or if you are sitting, it may just be that you inevitability to elevate it more. Mine used to hurt if I sat and tried to put it on the floor; if I put it on a pillow on a footstool or box it be fine. Gravity keeps the fluids within and makes it swell. When it swells, it hurts worse (and can do more damage).
Ice and elevate it are your best 2 things to do.
Good luck and I hope you treat fast!
What exactly IS going on when you get a side hurt while running?
I broke my ankle on a parachute jump and it be the one of most painful piece that I have ever endure.I am saying that within context with also have an ulcer contained by the intestine that ate through the wall.That is number one in my pain experience.Breaking my ankle is number two.I have to have the bone screwed hindmost together and it was traumaticly uncomfortable during healing.IT HURT!
That entity swelled and I was drinking Motrins.But,that is completely majority with that injury.
If the bone is salutary well,of late ride it out.You can go to the doctor,but if the bone is set correctly,nearby is nothing else to be done.Get a big bottle of Motrin,another one of Tylenol and create yourself comfortable.
The broken bone is in control right in a minute,not you.
When you sit down,always prop your foot up.If you sit at a desk or table,find a process to prop it up on the desk.It helps.
