No no no! Do not dance on it!!! One girl did something to her ankle last year in dance and kept dancing on it!. It got worse and then she had to keep a cast on for months!. I also tore my meniscus in my right knee last year!. The first thing the orthopedist told me was that I had to stop dancing for a few months in order for it to get better!. I stopped dancing for about 4 months and went to physical therapy!. Then I started going back to dance and everything was fine! You just have to give it time!

Take a break from dance for now!. If your ankle is swollen and you feel a pinching pain then there's definitely something wrong!. You need to rest your leg!. You can't be moving around too much!. Lie down and elevate it on a pillow for a while everyday!. And remember to ice it! Icing it is very important!. You said you're going to therapy so be sure to do the exercises they tell you to do EVERYDAY!. If you don't then it's going to take longer to heal!. You need to build up strength in your ankle so you'll be able to dance again!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
