Sorry Jim. I thought you were probably up on a chair in someones cellar looking for hidden gems. Good thing your ankle is all you busted up. Get well before late April.
Yeah Mr. S I don't need to buy a broken ankle
wrong forum, you, never mind.

ooooooh not fun....

r.i.c.e. rest ice circulation elevation , i believe you'll learn

How about range of motion... dorsel flection ...

IBUPROPHEN take it with milk ..

put sweatshirt sleaves on/over your crutch rubbers for extra cushion to prevent arm pit burn


don't know which foot: but
be careful of using your other foot leg and especially your opposite hip to do everything ...because you'll burn it out
real quick ...also if your wearing one of those air cast boots
that makes your injured leg Longer.

Heal up JIM ....don't forget your vitamins !!

It's been awhile since I worked in the rehab hospital but I believe the "c" is for compression (ace bandages etc...), wrap the ice around ankle with ace wrap and elevate. As for the crutches and stairs...remember "up with the good foot, down with the bad"
Good luck with the rehab!

=============================================
they are tricky

with 3 ranges of motion

when you get to the exercise phase ok jim

point your toes east then west |as far as you can
south then north

then rotate foot as if big toe is a thumb
point down to floor (as much as it will go)
this aint twister

then point to ceiling (as much as it will go)

then do rotations - clockwise then counter clockwise
similar to loosening up your neck

don't forget your crutches ...because hopping is bad

Hope you feel better soon.

Broke my right ankle two winters ago stepping off a icy curb. Landed in the street. Hobbled back tot he house, took my boot off and my foot grew to about twice its origninal size right before my eyes.

It still swells a bit on long walks, and it aches right before it snows, or if it is really cold. Kinda like a built in barometer.

Like everyone said, take it REAL slow, no point messing it up permanantly.
