I went to the doctor yesterday and he pointed out a few interesting points. I never thought of this ankle as a weak link in my chain, but when we went over the history of injuries there were quite a lot. I’ve broken this ankle and sprained it 6-7 times over my entire life. That’s enough injuries to build up a good measure of scar tissue.
My doctor approved of what I’ve done so far but said I should have stayed on the anti-inflammatory longer. Apparently it’s possible to still have a swollen ankle 2-3 weeks after the injury (which I still have). So 2 more weeks of rest and another regiment of anti-inflammatories. If it’s not better in 2 weeks I’m getting an MRI.
While I’m on the bench I’ve been coming up with creating ways to continue my boxing development. I’ll post about them later. Stay tuned.
