Twisted Ankle
I can move my all of my toes and have what appears to be full range of
motion with my ankle. Does this mean I didn't seperate any ligaments and or tendons? I have a trip scheduled to Lutsen this weekend and really want to do more than just shop at Gran Marais. Thanks |

Worked very well. -- Terje Henriksen Kirkenes |

Thanks Why don't you go into a drop in clinic (urgent care, etc.) and have a quaified person actually examine it? If you REALLY want internet advice from an unknown person who can't see or touch the injured ankle, I advise you to go ahead and ski and stop if it hurts too much. |

go to an ER, get it X-rayed, if it's not broken, put some elastic wrap
on it, and go skiing. |

In order to learn to tape the ankle yourself, you probably have to see a doctor who will send you to people who deal with such things (fysioterapeut, in norwegian). -- Terje Henriksen Kirkenes |

Ankle injuries are complicated. You don't necessarily have to take the
advice here that recommends ignoring the advice here. There are simple rules for taping your ankle. Once learned, it's still a bit of a hassle. You may have torn a ligament and need rest. A friend of mine had six surgeries and still had to quit skiing for life. Once sprained you may never see it return to the original state. You can either aggravate it or re-injure it, but if it's not a serious injury now, we will get rather ****ed that we are offering all this free advice to a whiner.

"You don't necessarily have to take the advice here that recommends

Is that anything like this: The statement below is true. The statement above is false. No wonder your mother calls you "idiot swift." cosmicharlie wrote: Ankle injuries are complicated.
