Dea B has a spectacular aura about
the crunching and popping is a very clear sign that u have either completely torn the ligaments or possibly even broken something
u said that it has bruised massively that is because of the broken blood vessels from either the ligament tearing, bone breaking, or both...

continue with what u ahve been doing(ice/elevating) and STAY OFF IT until u can get to the A&E...

and if it is painful or making "crunching" noises when u try to move it then i wouldnt try moving it too much...

u may also want to get a compression(ACE) bandage and wrap ur ankle(start from about 4 inches above ur ankle bone and work ur way down to ur toes)
