twisted ankle :(

[zjcarter22]

this happeneds three weeks ago while learning salchow .... when it happened i felt soooo much agony that i thought i wont be able to skate and just go home .... but i ignored it....

i didnt really pay attention to it until i realize that theres seriously something wrong with my left foot as everytime i try to stand on my toes , i felt a maasive pain....

its making me sad as ifs stops me from doing a salchow /toe loop.


i dont have any swelling or bruising , i can only feel pain if i put pressure on it....

anywyas, how long does it tAke to fully recover ? shall i see a doctor ?

I twisted my ankle about 2 1/2 weeks ago at work - fell down like a sack of spuds!

I had to pay attention to it - it was quite painful. So I just walked but at a slow pace, and didn't try doing anything that was too uncomfortable, but I did keep it as movable as possible, a little discomfort but not painful.

Must have worked - it feels fine now, the occasional twinge at extreme bend angles but that's all.

If yours is still quite bad and has shown no signs of improvement get it checked out. Better to be safe than sorry.

Good luck.
