Last night I fell down a flight of stairs and rolled my ankle bad. It’s black and blue and swollen but my s/o has no sympathy for me already. In context I only ask her to help me to the bathroom. Besides crawling, which I do now, should I duke it out more? I just don’t understand, I can’t physically put weight on it(without involuntarily screaming).

    Also: if it’s very swollen, that pressure stabilizes the injury and so it won’t hurt as much because things can’t move around. This is not a good sign.
