Being the ankle specialist right now (have my ankle brace now for 3 weeks and need 3 more):
First: ice is good. And if it's very much swollen then it's better most of the time than if it only a little swollen. It may only be a sprain.
If today you have the feeling soemthing could be broken- you'll have to see a doc for an Xray.
It can be a ligament rupture (like mine). Then it would be better to see a doc- but you also could do the following: tape your foot from the middle of the foot to over the ankle (imagine a ski boot without toes). Maybe you could buy a brace (www.aircast.com). A doc will not do more- they don't do surgery anymore on ligament ruptures. And of course: no high heels for six weeks.
Driving and working should be fine and after the first week it should hurt significantly less.
Plus: try not to limp but to roll your foot properly. Just do anything as slowly as you need it.
All the best - and of course MooShoo was fine
