Mark W Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 Your pixie boots won't save you now I've just maimed my ankle too, but mine seems to just be soft tissue damage according to the nice doctor at Southampton hospital.

max-t Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 man that sucks oweeeeeeee nice ribo's thoughLmao.Yer looked pretty nasty. Did he not dislocate it? looks like it by the way he landed. fractues are bad and everyone seems to be doing them at the moment Get well asap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Token Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 (edited) Er yeh. Apparently it dislocated but went back into its socket, two ligaments have snapped/ruptured (thats the crunch you can hear). The ACL and ACFL ligaments which attach your foot to your leg, so my foot was a little bit wobbly . Erm.... yeah the tibula fractured aswell so it was abit soar around the ankle but thats pretty minor compared to the ligament damage.After a few days you can see below where the ligaments ruptured and the internal bleeding had come to the skin. (mmmm bruised toes!) The second pic is a week later just before I had the cast put on. (the bruising was still coming out on my toes) Edited September 18, 2007 by Scopse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max-t Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 (edited) Arr dude, i did that, it sucks . Youll have to do shit loads of strengthening work on it when you start walking again and the ligamanets will take ages to heal back to full strength Done mine in february and it still feals alot weaker than the other one Max..

Tomm Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Er yeh. Apparently it dislocated but went back into its socket, two ligaments have snapped/ruptured (thats the crunch you can hear). The ACL and ACFL ligaments which attach your foot to your leg, so my foot was a little bit wobbly The ACL is in your knee (Ask Bongo about that one). The ATFL (Anterior talo-fibular ligament) is the one that goes first usually, and the other you might have done is the CFL (Calcaneofibular ligament).

PaRtZ Posted September 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 did you take up the offer of whiskey lol, he didnt which was a good thing because i dont know how to ask for whiskey in a shop in frenchQUOTE(Ben b @ Sep 19 2007, 11:33 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Ribo's they are ment to support your ankles ...thats true, BUT if you do the support up too tight, then you dont get as much freedom of movement. I always ride with mine a bit slack so when it comes to tucking, only then does it "pinch" against my skinany improvements on the foot matt?

Token Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 Check that oot!!!! Skinny motherhubbard of a leg now, got it off last night, from the very un-delicately handed Si (aka Physio). Ripped hundreds of hairs out my leg with his garden shears. Bloody nutcase . Anyway I'm free, and very weak + stiff, going on tip toes feels like I weigh 20stone which is abit pants. Gota get into a rough routine of stretching etc.^ my leg was in that, god knows how he didn't cut my leg off in the process of taking it off lol. Must be pro .
