if my ankle is fractured is it a bad thing to play soccer or any other sports?

Answer 1

You need to wait until you have received clearance from your health care provider.

Answer 2

I'd say yes. If you put an excess strain on a healing wound, there is a good chance the wound will not heal right. This can cause long term damage. Taking some off from sports now will let you play sports alot more in the future.

Answer 3

You can use a foam walker for sports to keep you ankle intact. The Foam Walker, also known as a Roboboot, is a product manufactured by AirCast which provides semi-pneumatic support for the foot and ankle to prevent motion and aid healing of bone fractures and edema. It was designed specifically for foot and ankle injuries and performs the same function as a standard orthopaedic walking cast, with the added benefits of customised adjustment and support, and capability for easy removal. Good luck

I badly sprained my ankle about 3 weeks ago. I was in a hurry going down the stairs, lost my balance and landed on a bad side of my left foot, causing my left ankle to be stretched going on the inside. The first 48 hours were excruciating and the pain was un-believable. I've never had a serious ankle injury before.

So I immediately treated it using the RICE method. The following day, the bruising and swelling were so horrible. I found out that I got a second degree sprain and immediately panicked after that. I had a football game on that week and it been looking forward to it because I've been training for rt. I had teammates that had similar injuries and it took them months to fully recover, some of them stopped playing altogether. So I kinda had a short-term depression because I can't imagine myself not being able to run and play sports anymore.

Because I was so desperate to recover again, I contacted a lot of people that I know who do sports and asked them if they had similar injuries. One friend of mine, from the boy's football team in my university, told me about H.E.M. Ankle Rehab. I got a copy 4 days after I got injured. I immediately read and followed what was instructed and felt improvement on the first day. I was able to walk a bit, but I was in pain.

A couple of days after that, the swelling and bruising were subsid-ing significantly and on the fourth day, I was walking comfortably again. Although I've had felt a bit of stiffness, I continued doing what was instructed. My sister was surprised that I have recovered this fast. I told her about this book and was shocked on how effective the procedures were. I'm just so happy that this book was shared to me and how effective it is.

Heal your ankle fully & fast?

Answer 5

do not play on it!!! unless you get the OK from your dr!! my friend played on his ankle when it was fractured and he had to have surgery, because he broke it on top of a fracture. and it takes twice aslong to heal.

Answer 6

Who cares! Your brain is obviously fractured and that hasn't stopped you from using it to ask assinine questions. I say go for it!
