My foot looks like a wrapped mummy. The yellow thing that is covering my skin is some kind of paste that is suppose to keep my foot from moving too much.
Actually it works. Usually I would wake up with a stiff leg but ever since I used that the past two nights, it's been pretty helpful in my healing process. I can walk a bit without my crutches but it sure still hurts a lot after that. I am still limping. The bruise has not subsided and the swelling hasn't also. But I am kinda upbeat that I can still limp around without my crutches. Although I still have cramps on my shin and calve sometimes. Probably due to lack of movement on my leg.

I am now in crutches
Yup, another pair of legs to walk and I ain't going any faster.
I had a pretty bad fall playing basketball, although I can't recall exactly what happened, but I remembered going after the ball with my fren who was my opponent. He was dribbling the ball actually, and he ran quite fast, so I did my super speedy chase to block him off, but somehow we collided and next thing I knew I was on the ground, clutching my right ankle. Oh the pain was excruciating, it took me a while to stand up and I had to laugh it off to numb the pain off.
Anyway, took a trip at A&E, doc said there was no fracture although he said my ligaments might be pulled pretty bad since I couldn't put my foot down properly without cringing in pain. So an appointment is set for me to go to see a doc at polyclinic.
Now, I am walking with crutches and it isn't easy. Walking with an extra pair of legs really takes a lot of energy. Looks easy but it ain't, now I know how much difficult it is doing simple actions at home. Heck, I had trouble taking my apple juice from the fridge, not to mention the difficulty of wearing shorts. I think I should just wearing a sarong.
