Update on possible destroyed ankle

This was the night after I rolled it. I stepped in a deep hole and heard it snap. This bitch hurt so bad that I didn't know what to do so I just forced myself to sleep with it wrapped, iced, and elevated. I couldn't just GO to the doctor I needed help because I live up three flights of stairs and legit crawled all the way up them when I came home. I needed someone to help me get back down so I didn't fall down the stairs and break my neck. (It almost happened because I stepped wrong and my so caught me)

This was the next day

Look at that shit. My ankle had neck rolls.

And then the next day, when I finally go to the doctor

And then today it's swollen again for some reason because it wants to show its ass when the doctor isn't looking. He pointed out that I hurt myself so bad I bruised all the way up my shin.

Ignore my ugly toes and unshaven legs. I had removed my nail polish to paint them again and then rolled my ankle, standing in the shower to shave with one functioning ankle... not my top priority.

The doctor told me that what I was doing was working, (rice method) and that it's not broken, and no tendons are torn. It is sprained though and I have to keep doing what I'm doing. He said verbatim "wow you really sprained the shit out of your ankle."

Sprained ankles... HUUUUURT. I sat criss cross apple sauce last night and put my weight on that ankle and my EYES went criss cross apple sauce. Even though the swelling is gone down doesn't mean there's no INTENSE pain.

Just updating because when I first posted people were asking and urging me to go in. I did.

It's ugly and it's hurting but it's okay.

I also want to add, what a cool cat I have. I KNOW it's random. But every night since I hurt my ankle, he tries to sit on it. He was kneading on my leg and ankle and purring. He wouldn't knead like on my actual ankle, just around it where it was sore like he somehow knew which part was hurt the most. I think my cat is magical and is trying to heal my foot. Mr magic cat.

Somehow knows exactly what part of me is hurt.
