I forgot to say that I had total loss of use of the leg then and even now it is painful and unsteady. This is a week and a half later. I ice it all the time, swelling is still present and I still can't walk. ER Doc gave me a shot which helped a lot but didn't take the pain away completely and also gave me some pain pills which do help to take the edge off. Please help me if you can to find out what happened and why I can;t walk?
