[QUOTE="Signature Only, post: 706617, member: 21043"] [FONT=Comic Sans MS][SIZE=2][COLOR=Blue]Twisted my ankle pretty good 8 years ago. Exiting through the rear door when a gust of wind blew a small package under my foot just as I was stepping down. Lost my balance and fell out. I was at a Coca-Cola plant and lots of guys laughed their asses off. (It was kinda funny, except for the pain) Finished the route and went straight to the hospital with a grapefruit sized ankle. Off work for 3 days, wore a brace for 3 months and brought 3 pairs of really good shoes that provide ankle support. Ice packs and Ketorolac (if your doctor will give you a prescription). It's excellent for skeletal/muscular injuries. Ketorolac is generic for Toradol but you can't take it for more than 5 days. With the ice packs, it will really reduce the swelling, inflammation and pain. Be sure to get a top of the line ankle brace. It'll take time for the ankle to heal, but if you support it well and ice it every night you should be able to work without much trouble. [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
