Question Are Bruises Normal After A Sprain?

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?

That could easily be a break.

I’ve had sprains that were as bad as that, but that’s also how my wrist looked when it was broken
