I had 1200 pounds fall on me and broke my tibia and fibia in ankle got a plate and screws i think when i pulled the foot from under the machine I did more damage then what the doctors think , it sprains easy 3 x so far and today it is so sore with throbbing and aching that I cant walk, feel like using my cruches . The doctor did say I now have artharitis in my ankle . But it is so painfull that it feels broken but its not . I dont take any pills for my pain nor do I want too.I ice it and put a warm pad on it at time . I limp cause my foot will not bend forward so its like walking with my foot flat all the time and never mind walking at a fast pase or run, to top it off I now have put more weight on and finding it hard to exersice due to the ankle all most every thing involves the ankle in one way or another . Yes I will be 50 next month so that doesnt help with weight gain . Any way you can help would be a blessing.
