looks like you have pulled your deltoid ligament hehe, rest ice compression elevation, and try not to weight bear on it for the time being, let it heal, then when u do dont do any twisting on it either cos u want the fibres to fuse back together or u will get scar tissue and then have ongoing problems and lose range of motionl....

sorry.. yeh.. looks sore take some anti inflammatorys like ibuprofen or something

thats not a bad ankle....



thats a bad ankle! thats from the top of my shin by the way.


just rets it mate, cold compresses to bring out the bruising, try and walk on it but dont go OTT, itll never heal proper unless you slowly start using it. sprained ankles and pulled ligaments so many times when i played basketball. you'll be sorted ina week at the most mate.

hehe yes the deltoid muscle is a musle on the shoulder, but there is a deltoid ligament in the foot, theyre named after their shape. but anyway... i got ti wrong ur deltoid ligament is on the inside of ur foot, it could be a number of other ligaments on teh outside... either way doesnt really matter what it is just that it hurts!!! hehe.. hope it gets better soon tho!!!

College freaked about it and wouldn't let him drive it back home
