Hi P.h medical experts,
I'm fishing at the moment and when I arrived about 05.00 this morning I managed to fall down the bank and roll my ankle underneath me.
Initially it hurt line feck and while lying in the ground the world went orange and I nearly passed out.
After a few minutes I rejoined the world and luckily realised I could walk and it held wait fine with no pain,all good.
A few hours after falling I dozed off and awoke to find myself in a fair bit of pain from either side of the ankle,I flex the foot up and down and hobble around ok but side to side kills.

Being a hard carp angler I'm gonna stick it out fishing til dark if I can bit any advice what to do then?
Is it just rest it overnight and all will be well or should I ring the Dr's?
Any advice greatfully received.
