It was a crazy day, with a lot of things to do and prep to make. We had some minor setbacks but no worries, we made it through. The table tops which we made for exhibitions were misplaced in the store room and couldn't be found along with business cards and some fliers. One of our display cabinets stopped working and had to be replaced with a less impressive freezer. Anyway, having less than a week to prepare for this exhibition I think we fared well. Sprained my Ankle :(
What is an Ankle Sprain? An ankle sprain is an injury to one or more ligaments in the ankle, usually on the outside of the ankle. Ligaments are bands of tissue—like rubber bands—that connect one bone to another and bind the joints together. In the ankle joint, ligaments provide stability by limiting side-to-side movement.Some ankle sprains are much worse than others. The severity of an ankle sprain depends on whether the ligament is stretched, partially torn, or completely torn, as well as on the number of ligaments involved. Ankle sprains are not the same as strains, which affect muscles rather than ligaments. What Causes a Sprained Ankle? Sprained ankles often result from a fall, a sudden twist, or a blow that forces the ankle joint out of its normal position. Ankle sprains commonly occur while participating in sports, wearing inappropriate shoes, or walking or running on an uneven surface.
Non-surgical Treatment
When you have an ankle sprain, rehabilitation is crucial—and it starts the moment your treatment begins. Your foot and ankle surgeon may recommend one or more of the following treatment options: Rest. Stay off the injured ankle. Walking may cause further injury. Ice. Apply an ice pack to the injured area, placing a thin towel between the ice and the skin. Use ice for 20 minutes and then wait at least 40 minutes before icing again. Compression. An elastic wrap may be recommended to control swelling. Elevation. The ankle should be raised slightly above the level of your heart to reduce swelling. Early physical therapy. Your doctor will start you on a rehabilitation program as soon as possible to promote healing and increase your range of motion. This includes doing prescribed exercises. Medications. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen, may be recommended to reduce pain and inflammation. In some cases, prescription pain medications are needed to provide adequate relief. Source: http://www.footphysicians.com/footankleinfo/ankle-sprain.htm
