Not Again!

OK, so I sprained my ankle...again! The first time was almost 3 years ago, then I redid it a few months later, but not so bad. I must be getting good at it, because this time has been quicker recovery than the first time. Tues night I was at Kyler's soccer practice. They had recently mowed the field, and so all the grass was level. I needed to take a ball back to the car and get Kyler's water, so just walking across the field I slipped into a hidden pothole, and twisted it again. The coach was an EMT, and he strongly urged us to get an x-ray, which I did. Again, nothing broken, just sprained a tendon or something. First swelling is the one that looks like a baseball under there, then it goes into Hulk mode where the whole ankle on both sides is swollen up, and doesn't bend well. I used 2 crutches on Wed, down to 1 crutch on Thrs, and am now hobbling. It's better, just a few angles that really don't do well. At least my nails looked good!
