Oh, and the ankle.

Avulsion fracture. Happens when a tendon is over stretched and pulls a bit of bone away from the rest. Treat like any other sprain, just with more wrapping, ice and ibuprofen. Should heal in 3-5 weeks and pain should subside by weekend. That's good, I do like walking.

Okay...I want you to be well. This is not good, but I'm glad it's not worse.

"Avulsion fracture"

Damn, even the name sounds creepy. And painful.

Wishing you a full and speedy recovery!
