Hit in the ankle with a hockey puck

I was at a scrimmage with my team 3 weeks ago when I got hit in the ankle with a puck. It hurt so much I sat out for a couple minutes and was favouring my other leg when j went back out. It was on the outside at the base of the joint. It was swollen for 5 days then I had a big bruise there for two weeks. It has been bugging me since. I tried to gently massage today it thinking might just be a muscle knot but it hurt to touch. I was stretching it out and it hurt to rotate and extend.

Hello~I would suggest seeing your doctor for an x-ray, you may have splintered your ankle bone.
