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.

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

  2. "Avulsion fracture"

    Damn, even the name sounds creepy. And painful.

    Wishing you a full and speedy recovery!
