Discharge //

You have been evaluated in the emergency department today for ankle pain. The x-ray of your ankle does not reveal a fracture. You can alternate Tylenol and Motrin every 4-6 hours to help control your pain. Please also rest, ice, and elevate your ankle to control your pain. Please follow up with your primary care physician within two days as needed. If you do not have a primary doctor, you can call your insurance company to find one. If you do not have insurance, you can look for one on this of local clinics or go to the finance/registration department for more assistance. Return to the Emergency Department if you experience worsening pain, numbness/tingling, change of color in your toes, or any other concerning symptoms.
