I was dog sitting on the 4th of July. The owners had a backdoor patio that you step down into. I wasn't paying attention because I wanted to check on one of the dogs, and my right ankle rolled forward as I fell. Funnily enough, the pain only fasted long enough for me to finish the job, and drive home. The pain came back in full force, and it hurt like hell.

I was dancing and I fell and my ankle twisted inwards. It hurt for the rest of the day and counting. No swelling, but lots of pain near the joint.

When I was in my twenties I rolled my ankle really bad on a job site carrying about a 40-lb countertop through a window. The drop-down from the window is about 2 ft. We so bad I almost passed out from the pain. When I recovered from the pain I left my boot on and kept working. When I got home and took my that's when my ankle and foot really started to swell. I iced my foot for about 10 minutes and somehow got my boot back on. Went out to dinner after that and drink a couple beers. I consciously kept my foot still during the meal because it was so swollen and hurt pretty bad. After the meal gingerly got up from the table and started to make my way out of out of the restaurant and somehow my ankle and foot we're a hundred percent back to normal. I'm very grateful but it was really odd on how quickly the swelling went down and there was no damage.
