Avatar n tn I had a severe inversion ankle sprain about 7.5 weeks ago – still shocked how far it rolled in. I had lots of pain and serious swelling (3-4 times normal ankle/foot size), could barely walk on it for first few days, and there was extensive bruising in foot, toes (turned totally purple!), ankle, and even half-way up calf muscle. When it happened, I seriously thought I broke it, so went to the ER. The ER doc x-rayed and simply gave me an air-cast brace and suggested it was a grade 2 or grade 2.
Avatar m tn I have sprained my left ankle many times, and the pain felt like a sprain; however, the way the pain was caused in my right foot did not resemble any of the ways I had previously sprained my left ankle. I took 2 weeks off to let it rest and then began my normal running routine. It was still in somewhat of pain, but I thought this was just part of the healing process. I ran a season in cross country and often found myself in the ice bath trying to heal the ankle.
Avatar m tn t know if this happened before or after the ankle sprain. I received the sprain by landing short, (leaning too far forward on a landing). Now it hurts whenever I put pressure on it while leaning forward. The sprain never swelled up when I got it, or even now.
Avatar m tn Coincidentally, the way to check if you potentially have a high ankle sprain is to squeeze the mid calf,and if there is shooting pain down to your ankle, you have a high ankle sprain. So, they were squeezing my injury for 2 days straight, and found my high ankle sprain a whole month and 6 days late. so my foot has been immobilized, apart from me walking on it slightly after my first surgery, which I stopped once I found out I had a high ankle sprain.
Avatar f tn I sprained my ankle more than three months ago, I was in a walking boot for six weeks as well as physical therapy. MRI 2 months later still shows a grade 2 sprain with swelling inside the joint as well as soft tissue swelling. Why won’t this heal? I’m still having a lot of pain and walking/pressure is not getting less painful.
Avatar f tn My ankle had sprains since last year till now. I went to see ortopedic surgeon earlier when the pain didn't go away and he gave me a jab to stop the pain. The pain stopped for few months but then it came back again after another sprain.Then I keep on getting more and more minor sprains until last month I got a major sprain. I gave up to see the western doctor so I went to see chinese doctor. He gave chinese medicine but then the pain refuses to go away.
Avatar n tn Hello there, Just under 4 weeks ago I rolled my ankle while playing soccer. When it occurred I came off but played a few minutes more, and after removing my shoe it started to hurt more. I know that it's an Inversion sprain because I had one two years ago on my other ankle which was more severe. However, for the first week or so I could put weight on it but it hurt, and twisting and inversion (turning it inside) was nearly impossible.
Avatar f tn m in more pain now than before the cast and if the results of the MRI are just normal for a previous sprain, why the cast and why am I in constant pain?
Avatar m tn HI I got an ankle pain for more than 1 year which occurred when I was playing football. The pain is in inner side of my ankle and the physician diagnosed ankle sprain; however there was no sprain by right or left side or any symptoms, it is just when I shoot the ball and my foot stretch down. I kept playing football and since then also visited 5 doctors and had 10 physiotherapy sessions. MRI showed 1st degree ligament injury.
Avatar m tn Hi! About 9 days ago I got a MCL (medial ligament) sprain on my left knee, doing sports, i'm in my mid 30s. Minor swelling and some pain to knee. The knee started feeling around 80% better about 3 days ago. I wore knee brace every day even to sleep, 2 days ago I changed to a more comfortable brace with those metal hinges on sides, also slept with it. My current issue/question, is 2 days ago I woke up with a swollen ankle and pain when putting leg down to walk.
Avatar f tn it is very tender wen you touch it it feels sore.. the best advic for you is to stay off it if it is very bad an ankle sprain can take up to 2 months to heal fully although from what your describing it does sound bad but hopefuly not that bad.. i would do 20 minutes ice (although this is better when you first injure it ) give a 20 min break and use 20 min heat !
Avatar m tn Tried some slow pace walking today on the treadmill and the outside of my ankle /bottom heel area of my foot started tingling. Wondering if this is normal for a sprain. I tried looking for enough but could not find munch on outside of the ankle tingling all was about the inside of the ankle.
Avatar n tn What can I do for the sprain since we have to prioritize the break right now and I can’t do any exercises like you would usually right away for a sprain? I’m afraid the recovery from the sprain is going to be very difficult if I don’t re establish range of motion for 4-6 weeks that it needs to be immobilized. Any thoughts?
1114793 tn?1258730647 He describes the pain as starting on the outside part of the top of his foot near his ankle. The pain goes across the top of his foot, and goes into the back of his ankle near the Achilles tendon area and up his calf. He said that it is a sharp stabbing pain that only subsides to a dull ache if he is off of it for quite a few days. The backside of his heel also hurts. I began doing some research, and I came across something called "posterior tibial tendon dysfunction.
Avatar f tn Thank you so much for the advice. This feels like a nail punching me just above my ankle each time I take a step. I did bruise really bad--in my toes and the bottom of my foot. Last night my foot was swollen really bad. I'll try to do the RICE procedure today, but when "Mom" calls, I have to go. If it is still giving me this much trouble, I have help coming Monday and I will ask her to take me to Urgent Care while the regular caregiver is here.
Avatar m tn I sustained a severe ankle sprain on October 10, and after a trip to the ER on the 14th, and a trip to an ortho on the 16th, no MRI was ordered. I am a bit confused by this. There were xrays taken on the 10th, 14th, and on the16th, but no MRI. The ortho stated that he did not believe the MRI would show anything additional above and beyond what the xrays and their examination had shown. Can someone shed a bit more light on the decision not ro MRI?
Avatar f tn Some sprains are very severe -- many years ago I turned my ankle and sprained the 2 outside ligaments. My foot and ankle swelled up like a Christmas ham, and I was off my feet for 6 weeks. The ankle was painful for the following year. Signs of a severe strain are continued swelling, discoloration of the ankle and foot, and pain to the touch in the areas of the ankle ligaments. Sometimes a bad sprain includes a micro-fracture of the medial or lateral malleolus -- the ankle bone.
422823 tn?1229736847 I have worn an ankle boot for thw two weeks, and done some mild exercises that the doctor gave me. I do not have access to an exercise bike or swimming pool, so I have been unable to do any real cardio on this down time and I am so anxious to get back into it. My ankle is still pretty sore. When can I start running again? Im afraid if I wait until it stops hurting I am going to lose a lot of valuable time (Im training for a 1/2 marathon).
1044425 tn?1257542510 You need to go for an MRI and if required go for a ankle brace to restrict movements at the ankle joint to give time for the ligament to heal. Take intermittent pain killers, apply ice packs and also follow up with an orthopedician. Take care!
Avatar m tn ve also noticed that it still feels the same as I have stopped skating for my left ankle sprain, I was thinking that like rest would make things better but it's still the same.
