bugscoe 2 Report post Posted October 4, 2006 I took a pretty hard shot that hit me right smack on the ankle bone, on the outside on my right foot. I had it x-rayed the following day since I could barely walk on it, and it came back negative. The doc called it a foot contusion. It's been almost two weeks since it happened and my ankle is still swollen a bit with some bruising and still hurts when moving it in certain ways. However, it does seem to be getting better, but very slowly.Anyone else that has had a similar injury? Can you share your recovery time?Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bugscoe 2 Report post Posted October 6, 2006 Thanks for the replies! I'm pretty sure I'm just dealing with a bad bruise since I can still skate and walk without too much pain. Although, after skating on it a while, it does start to throb a bit. I still have some swelling which is causing a little bit of inflexibility with certain movements.I've tried to seek info on the web regarding ankle bone bruises and there isn't a whole lot of info. The only thing that seems to be constant is they aren't a quick healing injury. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
