Hi, I am a new member of this site, my
name is kryssja.
I have two torn ligaments in my right
ankle. The first ligament tore some 6 or
so years ago, but at that time I did not
know that it was a ligament that tore, I
just thought it was a bad sprain.
I realized that something was wrong with
my ankle soon after that whenever I tried
to run and I would feel like something
shifted in my ankle and I would experience
pain and have to stop.
Now, due to that ligament and I guess the
pressure it was putting on my ankle, a
couple years later, I tore another
ligament...This one was more severe I
think, and I went to the doctor about it.
He ordered an mri of the atfl, but I have
not yet been able to do this mri because
they are very expensive were I am.
At this moment, my ankle has started to
hurt again...Mostly when I walk....But
sometimes when its just there, it hurts
very much.
Can anyone give me some advice on this
matter? I have another doctor's
appointment next week, but is there
anything I can do? What are my options in
terms of healing?
