Popped Tendon in ankle

Long story short, I have had some pain in my ankle for a while now. I kept meaning to make a GP appointment but I just didn't get round to it.

I bumped it quite gently last night, there was an audible pop, sudden swelling and a lot of pain. I spoke to a pharmacist friend and she recommended NICER which I did overnight and I did manage to get a bit of sleep.

I've called the surgery and a GP is going to call me shortly but what are they likely to say? Will I have to go to A&E?

If anyone has any knowledge of be really grateful.

I think I'd probably go to minor injuries or A&E TBH.

I'd go to urgent care/ minor injuries.
