I sprained my ankle today!!! Stepped awkardly off a stool and heard the loudest CRAAACCKKK!!! PAIN!!! Luckily I was at work and luckily I'm an xray tech and luckily my relief came and xray'd me and it was only a sprain!! Unluckily, I was gonna buy my new road bike this week!!!!! :(

[mimitabby]

oh, what a bummer. I hope you heal up in a jiffy.
Can't you still buy your road bike ? :p
I mean, it's all picked out, right?

[roadie gal]

OUch! Take care and I hope you get better soon.

[KnottedYet]

Heal up quickly, your bike is calling you! :D

[rij73]

Oh nooooooo! Glad it wasn't worse, and hope you get better real quick!

It may only be a sprained ankle, but unless you're young and bounce back quickly, you may be pretty sore and tender for awhile. Be patient with yourself. Baby that ankle. Don't re-injure it. Do the ice and rest and let your body heal. And enjoy that new bike 'cause it's waiting for you!

Ouch! If it's a sprain, what snapped? Ligaments? Take care of that ankle, your bike and the rides will be there for you. :D

Oh no dingster1!!!! I hope you heal quickly. Take care of yourself and hopefully you will soon be well enough to get back on your bike!

[OakLeaf]

Ow! I hate that sound! Heal up quick okay?

[DDH]

I hope you heal quickly as well. Why not go ahead and get your bike. It will give you something to look foward to doing once your ankle is all healed up.
Give it time though you don't want to make it worse.

RICE-rest, ice, compression, and elevation...take the time and heal properly. Buy your bike, and adore it, once you are healed, ride...it will be glad you waited;)

Take an epsom salt bath. Helps all kinds of things, including sprains.

Feel better soon! Your bike is waiting…

[dingster1]

Thanks guys!

[mimitabby]

are you feeling any better?

[Zen]

Daggone, Dingster!
Hey, look at it this way- at least it didn't involve wrecking your new bike;)
Get better soon so we can do a canal ride sometime.

What bike did you decide on?

[bounceswoosh]

Doh!

I guess you know already -- RICE!

(I suck at actually doing that when I hurt myself, but I hear it's good)

Here's to your swift recovery.

Sorry to hear of your mishap, Dingster... Take it easy. If you press too early on it, it will bother you later on. I sprained my ankle last February and I still have problems with it...

[Lifesgreat]

Sorry to hear about the sprain. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
