Replying to Bad ankle injury, Please Help. +k for responses
During football practice a few months ago, I strained my achilles tendon and my flexor hallucus longus muscle in my calf. I did physical therapy and wore a walking boot for a while and my doctor gave me the all clear to ski if i felt up to it, so naturally I decided to ski over the weekend and now I'm regretting it. There were a few small jumps on the one open trail at Jay Peak, and I was having a lot of fun doing 3's, and small grabs etc. until on one landing a shooting pain went up my left ankle and calf. I kept skiing and the pain in my heel and my ankle only got worse. I have a history of plantar fasciitis (basically jut inflamed tissue under the heel) on the injured side (left) and tendonitis in both ankles, so basically i currently have a combination of a very sore and inflamed achilles, bad plantar fasciitis and tendonitis all on my left leg. Anyway, i was wondering if anybody had any tips to help heal faster, because I want to be able to ski again ASAP. Thanks
