What do I have? My ankles are bruised/kinda swollen?

[kneesbeesknees]

What is it? When I rest and do not put weight on my left ankle/foot it doesn't hurt, but when I step on it it hurts and it feels like my arch is collapsing. The bruise/swell is on the side of my foot/ankle area.

Should I use my crutches? I have em' available.
