[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 706506, member: 12570"] OK, I'll try to post to your standards: A month off for a sprained ankle does seem excessive to me and may indicate that it was more than just a sprain, especially since you are still experiencing pain in your ankle. I would think that the pain in your knee would also indicate that there may be more to this injury. Did you go for an MRI either initially or at any point during the month that you were off? Did you follow your dr's instructions (elevate, ice)? Was physical therapy part of your treatment and, if so, did you give 100% while at therapy and when doing the exercises at home? I think you should make an appt to go back to the doctor who treated you, discuss your concerns and ask for an MRI. The decision as to whether you go back out on comp or not will not be yours to make--it will be your doctor's decision. [/QUOTE]
