skied breck friday, drank a few beers at lunch and was feelin brave. hit the pipe just tryin to go big and ended up landin basically at the bottom of the tranny. my ankle didnt make it out to well, its all swollen now and killin like shit. i have a basketball style brace on and have been icing it. if anyone knows anything i should do to speed up the recovery that would be wicked. word

usually ankles arent the worst cause their confined in the boot without much movement, i sprained my ankle ballin' and took a week off but was fine even thought i was supposed to take more time off...just keep icing, advil, and keep the pressure off as much as possible...i also thought beer on the mtn was the dumbest idea ever

broke my ankle in two through my ski boot, and tore two ligaments 3rd degree. took me out for four months. ice it, and try to move it on its own. after you feel stronger, get a thera-band, and start doing pulling exercises to strenghten the ligaments.

How about see a doctor to find out exactly what you did?

No one should ever go to a doctor unless your dying or something cuz they'll tell you you can't ski for the rest of the season or something stupid like that even if you sprain yor thumb.

i wouldn`t be skiing on the foot for some time. Give it time to recover, and do balance(important) excercises and ask someone medically-gifted about some other weirdo (but good) excercises to do. if you ski to hard on it, the healing progress will/could go the wrong way. Did the same thing last winter and it sucks ass, now my other ankle is broken, but soon recovered!(broken ankles sucks ass too by the way...)

thanks for the info, appreciated greatly. scotty, would u happen to know any balance type strecthes or any regular stretches, ive been moving it around on its on till the point where the swelling prevents it from further movement. but other than that im out of ideas, i heard stretch bungies 'things' work well. any ideas are helpful!! also i heard that if its broken it doesnt swell???? could jsut be bull
