Re: Health and Fitness Thread
Good to know you're doing better restlesssoul.
Speaking of injuries, I dunno where to ask about this so I'll do it here and hope somebody can give me suggestions inshallah.
Last year before we were married my husband twisted his ankle during bball and it swelled up really huge. He couldnt walk on it and didnt go to the doctor until he realized weeks had passed and it was still swollen and sore (I bugged him so much to go ). So in Saudi the doctor told him he had a chipped bone and gave him meds and a brace and alhamdulillah it was fixed.
I told him whenever he plays bball he should wear an ace bandage or some athletic ankle support thing so he doesnt have ankle issues when he's older, but I guess he forgot. Last weekend he played bball and twisted it again, it was soooo swollen and painful. I put ice on it and elevated it but that's it. He still hasnt been to a doctor and on the third day claimed it didnt hurt anymore (he wasnt limping but it was still swollen) and now that he's overseas he said it's not swollen anymore but I dont believe him.
Could he have chipped it again or sprained it or something?
