Re: Where's my ankle gone?
looks nice and swollen there (either that or you have fat ankles?) did something similar when i was playing rugby at school, a ruck collapsed on my leg and twisted my right foot right round counter clockwise. Tore up all the ligaments pretty badly and swelled up in a few moments. the pain was so bad i passed out a few times as they moved the other players off my leg (oh the fond memories of school). by the time i got home it looked pretty nasty, all purple and swolen.
my dads diagnosis. . . "run it under the cold tap"
2 years after whilst at the doctors i mentioned some pain in the ankle especially after running etc. after a x ray he confirmed it had probably been broken at some point, apparently running these under a cold tap wont fix them.
moral of the story, dads know nothing about injurys, always go to the hospital and get it checked by a professional
