Let us know what the doctor says. Hope it's only a fracture that doesn't need a cast...
Wishing you the best
I think I will go back, the pain is increasing, i will ask them to xray my leg since last time they only did the foot
Yeah its quite upsetting, shows how much I matter to other people that they either dont care / think im faking >_>
I am so sorry that people think you're making it up. I don't believe so. If the pain is worse or hasn't gone away by now - there probably is a break. Please take care of it as soon as you can. You don't want it to heal badly ...
Hoping for a good outcome...
Well the Xray on my foot was fine but they didnt bother doing one on my leg, ill go see them again and see what they say.
Its really getting me down, i've lost all my apatite / been sick from the pain a couple of times, and the worse part is people think im faking injury... sigh.!
Since you heard a crack you probably have a broken bone and it will take stabilizing it and staying off of it to heal for at least 6 weeks. Go back to the A&E and have them x-ray the part of your leg/ankle that is still bruised and hurts. They will probably see the break. - I recently broke my ribs and waited about a week and a half before going to the ER. The x-rays showed the broken bones.... I kept thinking I was only bruised and didn't go until the pain was unbearable.
So yeah, thats kind of me through with them now
= / Its not about style its just they are so awkward to use and make my arms hurt >_>. All I can do is keep resting it though im pretty sure my parents dont even believe that I have an injury...
Doctors give these instructions for a reason honey. Although you may feel that you look silly or the crutches cramp your style or for whatever reason you dont want to use it, it will help as well as the bandages, they give support and stability to your ankle so that it may heal properly. If the pain is worse after taking the bandages off then you may want to reconsider your decision.
good luck!!
Okay, I had a hairline fracture in my left ankle. I was placed in a hard boot, given crutches, and told to do as you did. I followed instructions for about a week or so, and, like you, got tired of the whole mess. Long story short: my ankle did not heal properly. It would swell and hurt for no reason, randomly. I tried all sorts of combos of shoes and ankle supports. None worked for long at all. It finally got so I could not walk any distance more than 20 feet without needing my walking stick, and that was annoying, too. One day, I got a wild hair and bought a pair of moccasins: the real leather ones with no sole. MY ANKLE HAS NOT HURT OR SWOLLEN SINCE. I wear the moccasins every day, regardless of the rest of my outfit. No pain, no swelling. I think this is because wearing these moccasins is the closest thing I can come to bare feet: humans were made to be barefooted, really. Not having my feet bound-up and pressure in wrong places from shoes and supports has done wonders. My feet act like feet. It's wonderful. That's my story. Hope it helps you. Blessings - Blu
