Anyone ever broken an ankle?

I'm going back to the doctor tomorrow and going to try to go back to work. Wish I could take NSAIDs but I have stomach issues and I can't take them, so it's tylenol for pain. Wonder if the bone has slipped since it still hurts quite a bit, but they are doing an x-ray tomorrow and I'll find out.

Thanks everyone for all the information.

Been back to the doctor, no work for another week to two weeks. Bone is healing - slowly. Guess that might have something to do with my age . The swelling is fierce if I'm up out of bed for more than 3-4 hours. I'm really tired of laying around - however, the dogs are LOVING it.
