So yeah, decided to play some basketball yesterday with some guys from work, now none of these guys are all that athletic, so i was showing off cuz i played bball all through high school and some in college, anyway, i go up for a rebound and come down hard on someones foot...POP...there goes my ankle...so yeah im gimping around on an ankle about the size of a softball, the only saving grace is that it was my left ankle and i could actually drive myself to the hospital since i drive an automatic (PS the protege barely fits my crutches without busting out a window...)

 

Eh...I know that popping sound. Ice, elevation & ibuprofen are your friends!

 

sorry to hear about it bro.... joint injuries suck something fierce. I had both of my knee's broken when I was 12. Now I have full blown arthritis in them at 27.

p.s. out of all the pain meds I was given when I had my jaw surgery Ibiprofen was the only thing that worked...800mgs 3 times a day.;

 

ha yeah im on my way to the pharmacy soon to get some 800mg ibuprofen and tylenol with codene...ive done this to the right ankle and sprained the ACL in my right knee, so im just glad i can still get around without having someone else cart me around for a couple weeks

 

heh, reminds me of the time that i fell off that 40 foot light pole and snapped almost all the ligaments in my left foot....

 

Sorry to hear about your injury. I play golf, so the worst I have to worry about usually is sunburn, lol.

 

ha yeah i actually had a tee time today too, but its tough to swing the clubs hopping on one foot...

 

pain is just weakness leaving the body.
A friend of mine had a cast on his clutch foot and still managed.

(quote button didnt work for somereason)

Yeah, I got a mad blister on my right index finger the other day from hitting 100+ ballls at the range.

Sorry to hear about your foot man, Atleast your not too bummed about it.

 

Glad to hear its not too bad. Get well soon.

 

ha thanks a lot jacka$$... a cast is one thing, but since i had to be helped out to the car to drive myself to the hospital, pressing the clutch probly wouldnt have worked out too well...

ill im worried about is being able to stand enough to throw horseshoes or quoits at the MTMA bbq lol

 

yeh doin ur ankle sux... i busted mine soo many time playin junior basketball for clubs.... then had surgery on it... and since them bahh.... it just dont feel right...

i lost some of my leap finding it harder to dunk now.. freakin hell!! the one thing i was good @ hehehe

it will be okay in a day or 2 man... that was the case for me... 2 day of sitting there with it elevated and next day i was walking hehe

 

ha yeah so im a moron.... my roomates threw a keg party last night, so i was up and walking around all damn night, then crutched my way 1/2 mile to the diner for some drunk food....soo damn sore this morning...i am officially done complaining cuz i only brought this on myself haha
