I ruptured a ligament in my left ankle almost 3 weeks ago. I have to stay off it for another week then I can slowly get back to exercising. This injury has made me very upset, due to I was running everyday and then this happened:( But thank you for reminding me the dangers of trying to get on it too soon.

I can so relate, dr told me yesterday I had a spranged ankle, I've been on crutch for over a week now and I have a ankle brace boot on now. It has felt so much better but I have a long ways to go. Dr even putting me in to do some therapy if insurance approves it.
