[OT] Foot, ankle, heel, toe
Or whatever.
Last week after my PT appointment (a few days after, maybe?) my foot started feeling like someone jabbed a railroad spike through the heel. Yhat is *not* a pleasant feeling, I tell you. So I see my PT yesterday, and she puts me in this boot contraption that felt pretty good last time (it circulates cold water and squeezes your foot). This time, it put me through the ceiling, and by the time my PT came back, I was in tears from the pain. She was upset and sorry, and looked at my foot. She's not a doctor, of course, but she said it appeared that whatever the hell is going on here (break or sprain or whatever) had now moved into my heel, and my arch was falling and my achilles' heel was involved and it's no wonder I was in so much pain. We decided to wait until I see my doctor tomorrow and the ortho P.A. next week before doing anything else. She did wrap my arch, ankle and heel in that weird medical brown stuff that sticks like tape but isn't sticky, and gave me the rest of the roll to take home. I really wish someone would figure out what is wrong with this #$#%^ foot, or someone is going to have said foot in a dark place soon. Ginger-lyn Just kidding |

Be careful, because the ankle has a lot of fussy little bits of tissue that rupture when you sprain it, and you really need to rest it.

It was *hugely* swollen up to the point where I couldn't even see my ankle :-( It's less swollen now, I think, although my PT wrapped it in tape, so I can't really tell. Ginger-lyn |
