Me Poor Ankle

Was just saying the other day that I've found a cure for a strain ankle. Guessed I was wrong to say so soon.

Went to see Doctor just a few days back. One press and the verdict is: "hmmm...you've got a sprain tendon... it will really hurt."

Me: "really ar ? need to avoid any food ?"

Dr: " no need. Just don't put pressure on that foot? Avoid walking"

Me(thinking deeply): Huh??!!?? Avoid walking? Smiley courtesy of www.FreeSmileys.orgWho's gonna carry me around?"

Dr: ".. give u some muscle relexant, pain killer & ointment.. remember, don't walk too much yeah..Want MC ?"

Me(talking to myself): "Doink!!! How not to walk ar? but MC sounds good.. Smiley courtesy of www.FreeSmileys.org"

So, was on MC for a day.. Then, walk around like an old woman for a few days after that and still went for salsa on Saturday(what we call in Malay, cari pasal, ie looking for trouble!!).

Felt much better after a few turns and (forced)spins. Me think it helps as a form of physiotherapy.

After a day's rest, felt much better, but still need to wear me ankle guard to protect it till it healed well. Sigh....
