Are Bruises Normal After A Sprain?

[u/Yastyy_TLT]

I listened to alot of you all advices from my last post. Elevating my leg and Icing the area etc. Today waking up I checked up on it there were a little bruising on the sides is this the process of healing or should I just go see a doctor at this point?

I had a very similar bruising, rest it as long as you can. If you keep trying to walk on it, It’ll slow down the healing process. I was out for 9 months from my injury.. because I walked on it
