On Wednesday night, playing basketball got my feet tangled up and went down. When I looked down my foot was on a different axis than my leg, it set itself in a matter of seconds. Swelled up to softball sized in about a minute. Drove myself to the ER and got Xrays, which turned up negative. One day R. I. C. E. and I can bear weight, with the wrap and air splint I can walk fairly normal. Getting started and stairs are less than pleasant, but them are the breaks
CSB TL;DR..... Don't fall |

When you can, start doing the ABCs by pointing your foot and acting like you are drawing them with your big toe. Advil/ibpro 4 pills X 3 per day for a week. Ice 20 heat for 10 always ending on ice. Work you way to calf raises and then do them on stairs.
It's a slow process but you won't loose strength if you do it like that. |
