Broken mine yesterday on a big trampoline while jumping i landed oddly with my full weight which is 95kg on my left ankle and shattered it on 2 places. Couldn't sleep last night due to pain.

Good advice. My family made me go to A&E. Glad I went as I broke my Ankle Dog 🐶🐕 walking. Only I could do such a thing. 🤣😭 The upside is, the house is in a right mess now I can't put weight on my 🦶 foot. And I do not want to end up damaging my good leg, so I try not walk unless I have to. And I'm loosing weight. Yay. ❤️

I think my other half now appreciates all the work I did in the house now. 🤣😭 No clean washing now, no washing up done, no hoovering or general cleaning and I can't dog walk. And I don't care. It's getting to him. 😭🤣 Totally worth it. 👍 I have had no working sink in the kitchen for two years. Now he's seeing how hard it is to wash up. Loving it. 🤣😭 Joking aside, he's a brilliant Dad. ❤️

I used Plantain herb oil on my ankle and drink plantain herb water. I only have pain if I put pressure on my foot by standing. So I hobble. I'm just sharing my story. I'm not a Herbalist, but my friend is. I'm also using Comfrey oil as it is supposed to knit the bones together. The swelling has gone down. ❤️

I twisted my ankle yesterday and I heard a pop, so I bandaged and iced it, but I twisted it again this morning getting out of bed. Do you guys think it’s broken or just sprained? I can barely walk on it or move it.

[gossipgirlll]

I watched this because I have 2 bumps on my ankle and when I walk on it it hurts and when I take and put my foot in my shoe it hurts.

This was really helpful. Inverted my ankle last night while out jogging and watched another video thinking I might just have a sprain as it doesn't look so swollen or bloody internally. Then watched this video, tried pressing on those areas and OW it hurt, also can barely do four taps... I think it's a small fracture, so reluctantly off to A&E I go...😩 Thanks for the advice.

I just broke my right ankle yesterday! no pop just cracked and rolled it from falling down stairs super painful.

[randomchild]

I think i have broken/sprained my ankle i have been walking around like this for 2 days and its really swollen

[gottaluvme]

i was in school today and i fell from the stairs and twisted my ankle and now i can hardly walk on it

[tiktokcompilations]

I fell earlier and couldn’t tell. It hurts a little when I walk but it’s not swelling, I can touch the bone and it doesn’t hurt, and I can still put weight on it

[truthfinder]

I twisted my ankle, but i can walk, run climb, jump, put weight on it, i can rotate, twist, strech, move it, basically i can do everything but yes i do feel a very little pain sometimes, while stretching or putting stress on it, and the most of the swelling is gone away but a very small swelling still present right below the ankle. Should i be worried about it like future surgery or some serious issues that might occur in future? Or is it going to be healed completely by time on its own

[LaylahJade]

I twisted my ankle and have pain on the ankle bone but the hospital won't x-ray me . They say it's a sprain

[Mr.relaxed]

I broke it because when I was playing American football, I had the ball and I was trying to make a touchdown but I had to get pass through the people which I’m bad at defending the ball. So when I turned my right I accidentally slipped and broke my ankle.

I broke my ankle from a slide tackle and now I’m in a cast for 6 weeks💀

[Red________]

I have an insanely high pain tolerance which runs in the family (snapped my arm and thought it was only a burse for a week) but in drama today i got shoved over and my ankle got stopped on and twisted i have this insane pain when i walk but i can walk i just did a school tour, i have taken off my shoes and every bit of pressure hurts 5/10 pain, just to explain my familys pain tolerance we dont really go to the docter and when my brother broke his leg he tired to walk it off for a good 2 months

[magic_man_sam]

I was playing lacrosse yesterday and over extended my leg and fell, I didn’t hear a pop but now it’s swollen and bruised and hurts whenever pressure is applied. Do you think it’s a sprain or broken

[peacedebators]

I recently had an accident where I wasn't looking and tripped over a one-step stair at my mosque. I heard a crack from my left leg and felt immediate pain. Hours later, the pain in my left foot became severe, making it hard to walk without support. Has anyone experienced something similar? What did you do to recover?
