Argggh. Back on the IC

[Scruff55]

I went out on Friday for my usual little run and after a good 15 minutes of easy running I felt a sharp pain in my ankle through to my heel. I didn’t go over on my ankle in any way but just felt this pain. I rested yesterday but did go for a little walk of about a mile and my ankle felt ok. BUT this morning my ankle is sore it’s not bruised to look at but feels it and I don’t think it’s swollen but it’s definitely painful 😥. So I think I will need to rest it and ice it for a few days 😥😥

Ouch! Maybe you pulled a tendon or something? If it isn't better after a few days rest best to see your GP or a physio. Please don't just suffer Get well soon!

Thank you. I will see how it goes then try private physio as I can’t see the dr being very interested and will just refer for NHS physio which has very long waiting list

[Yesletsgo Administrator Graduate10 in reply to Scruff55]

It's money well spent if it gets you pain free quicker

[Scruff55 60minGraduate in reply to Yesletsgo]

Definitely 🤣

Oh no!! Scruff!!! The Christmas present nobody wants. I hope it’s a short stay on the IC. Hopefully it’ll settle or you can get some expert advice on what to do. Hugs!

Ouch, poor you, hope it heals soon

[Scruff55 60minGraduate in reply to SueAppleRun]

Me too I’d just got back to running 2-3 times a week 😢😢

Ugh...!!! Lots of room here on the IC.

I agree with your plan for a private physio. I have done the same with my stress fracture and he's been great.

Hopefully it will resolve itself with a little rest, ice, and elevation...

Thank you. Plump up the cushions. I’m going to rest for this week and see how it goes. It certainly feels better today so 🤞it continues over the next few days.
