Sprained Ankles

Featured Replies

Certainly underestimated in standard array of painful yet mediocore injuries

 

I've had plenty over the years but the amount of throbbing agony never ceases to amaze me.

 

Think I'm gonna have to raid the wife's medicine cupboard for some nurofen

Sprains, breaks, airline fractures, they all suck, I've mentioned these before, so I won't bore you all, but will say I once sprained my ankle when my knee gave way and my head went into the advertisement boards on Prem Fives/powerleague, triple wammy right there.

Frozen mushy peas?

Is that, for example, when a company such as British Airways splits into two smaller companies?

I always used to wrap a towel around my ankle, sit on the side of the bath and pour hot then cold water onto it. Worked for me, I don't do tablets.

use the RICE method

 

I thought that was used to get water out of a mobile phone?

 

Now I'm all confused. :blink:

whats an airline fracture?

Put it this way, having watched stuff on discovery channel like Gone in 60 seconds, they often are quite lethal and certainly not somethin you can fix with a bag of frozen peas; mushy, garden or otherwise.

 

although maybe frozen sweetcorn would help.

Frozen mushy peas?

What's wrong with frozen mushy peas btw?

 

I don't have any personally, but I can't see what would be wrong with 'em.

 

Lots of chippies use them. Genuinely ITK. :good:

not that kind of special.

Soak in comfrey leaves in a bowl of water as hot as you can be comfortable with.

 

If you can't get leaves smear with comfrey cream from health freak shops.

What the fuck is comfrey?

im guessing, there not nettles.

 

fuck all comfy about nettles.

Apparently it's a herb. It used to grow just beyond the garden at home when I was young. Look up 'knitbone' on wiki for info, or ask someone who did sport a very long time ago.

You're a Fanny!!

I broke my ankle on a New Years eve when I was in my early 20s, I knew it was broken, it was the size of a balloon and purple but I was fuckin sure it wasn't spoiling my party (When I was young in Scotland New Year was the main party of the year) I drank for 2 days, went to a Queen of the south v Kilmarnock game on Jan 2nd and didn't go to hospital until Jan 3rd

 

I got out of plaster 7 weeks later, broke it again in the July playing football and was off work another 2 Months then in the November of the same year broke it again playing football... i was told to stop playing football or lose my job.

 

Oh what might have been

 

apart from the fact I had no talent
