Okay so about 3 weeks ago I was skateboarding and I landed on my left foot on its side. When it happened it hurt so much I could barley walk. After about a week it only hurt when I put pressure on the side of it. Now it only hurts a little bit when I put pressure on it's side. I went to the doc and they said that the bone on that side was possibly broken, but they weren't for sure because it didn't come up on my x ray. Anybody know any solutions for it to get better faster? Please I haven't skated in like 3 weeks and that's pretty much torture for me! :(

Tape it. With that gauze tape for spraines, and avoid all pressure.
Just rest it.

Well, obviously you need to keep it in place.
You can't just be moving it all the time.
It will take longer to heal if you keep putting pressure on it.

rick is right, dont put pressure on it and keep it tied up in bandages if you are going to go skating.
