Several wks ago  rolled my ankle while running (didn't see a small rock on the road).

Felt better after about a week but continued to note some lateral malleolus swelling particulaly at the end of the day.  Saw a sports med doc (a friend) who suggested xrays and MRI. Xrays normal...MRI not (talofibular tear). No surgery just PT suggested.

Anyone have any  experience with this injury? Recovery time. Doc said  that swimming and riding are fine since they're different movnments.

Sorry about your ankle! I was victim of a crunching tackle on mine during a soccer game and it left it looking like this:

...and out of action for 6 weeks. I googled your diagnosed problem, but still not sure what it is, but wanted to share my experience. Hopefully someone else had a closer experience? I could feel things "not in place" when I tried to run on it, so ended up just staying off of it as much as possible for the 6 weeks. No problems now.
