Spraining the ankle
I have to say folks…this must be one of the most disgusting things you can do to your body. Besides dislocating your knee, getting decapitated, and shoving tooth-picks under your finger nails…this has got to be the worst. It’s probably not the worst FEELING injury, but it’s got to be the nastiest sounding. I honestly have never heard anything like it before, and I’ve sustained multiple fractures, bruises, cuts, dings, twists, and smashes. On Friday I was playing basketball at the rec center, and I had been there all of about 15 minutes and absolutely demolished my ankle. I swear if I had looked down I could have seen the logo on the bottom of my shoe. Disgusting. The noise, the feeling, what the other players were saying it looked like. All disgusting. But anyhow…it’s already starting to feel a bit better, and I’m hoping to be back up there at the rec throwing down the sky hook on a regular basis.
rough. do you wear an ankle brace? i have had dislocations (softball), broken arm, bursitis, and other such injuries but have never sprained an ankle (that i remember!) GET BETTER QUICK!
ouch. man. that sounds painful. rub a steak on it. (hey. it works in the cartoons for black eyes, doesnt it?)
