Missed the bottom stair last night, sprained ankle.Have strapped up with Gamgee and purple vet wrap (looks rather fetching) Last year I fractured my head of humerus, wondering what next year will bring? At least I no longer suffer from equine related injuries, of those I have too many to remember.And, my elderly mother is in hospital, only second time in her life, and unable to visit, although other family members/friends are visiting.Feel like a bad daughter.

Oof I did that on holiday in august, putting my full weight on the side of my foot. Didn't bother getting it seen but in hindsight should have, as I'm still getting twinges of pain sometimes.

Had the same earlier this year, very painful.

Why cant you visit your mother? If its because of your ankle, does anyone you know have crutches you could borrow?

I’ve strained my ankle 3 times, once fell on ice pushing pram, second time fell over lawnmower and the third time first night on holiday fell on uneven path in the dark. Wrapping ankle tight really helps. I was never so bad that I couldn’t walk or drive short distances but did keep it elevated at home with painkillers. I walk down stairs very carefully especially when carrying armful loads of washing. Hope it heals soon.
