Replying to I fucked up
So two weeks ago I sprained my ankle really bad, crashed off a jump and my binding didn’t release for some reason, the crash happened so fast I have no idea what went wrong but I’m pretty sure that my binding not releasing is the cause of my injury. Before you ask, my DIN is 8 and that’s what been suggested to me by the ski shop I’ve been going for the past 10 years so no, I don’t have crazy high DIN. It never happened to me in 15 years+ of skiing that my binding didn’t release properly so that’s why I’m confused.
Anyway, I’m pretty sure my foot is fucked because it’s been two weeks and I still can’t walk properly. I can walk but can’t make a full step, I can’t put weight on my toes.
Anybody got any experience with this? I don’t have insurance so I don’t know if I should just wait it out or if I really need to see a doctor, from what I read online it’s definitely a sprain but I don’t know how bad since it never happened to me before so I don’t know what to do. I definitely don’t want it to a recurring injury but my foot’s been getting a little better everyday.
I think my skiing season is over? I think I’ll be out for a while, I have no idea. Any help is appreciated.
Thank you!
