Now, we’ve already established that I am not a doctor. I have no specialist medical knowledge. I am pretty good with a sick rabbit (and I have the textbook for that too), but sick humans are not my thing.
But I do know that a sprain is just soft tissue damage. And that when you take the bandage off your sprained foot, and the swelling is pretty much gone, the bruising has broken up, you shouldn’t find a hard bony lump. And when the ankle looks pretty much recovered, it shouldn’t hurt as badly as it did on the first day. Well, not quite that bad – I now think that I did have a sprain, and that hurt, but I think I have a secondary issue as well, and that hurts as much as it did on the first day.
So I’ve made an appointment to see the quack, but I could really do with hearing “nothing wrong with you, stop your whinging”. But I suspect that isn’t what I’m going to hear.
Bugger.
