Ankle injuries: What's your experience? in Health ·
Kimberly Williams45 said:So, my guy recently broke his leg, and while we were just scrolling through some stuff online, we stumbled upon this advice about beefing up his diet—specifically more calcium and protein. Basically, chug more milk and go hard on the steak!

Sending good vibes to him... and hey, let me know when your man finally gets back on his feet😕 😕 and if he had to deal with a cast and for how long??? Just curious about the whole ordeal...
🙏
I went in for my checkup today thinking they might finally ditch the cast, but nope... I’m stuck in this thing for another 40 days...👎

I actually took a photo of my leg before it was all wrapped up, and man, it looked pretty ridiculous swelling up like that...
If anyone wants to see the carnage, let me know... hahaha😬 😬 😬

Michelle Cook83 said:I have no clue which brand of baby formula actually has ZN in it, but honestly, if you're looking for results, just go with tablets so they get a precise dose. Grab some Vitamin A from Natural Wealth or something.

Thanks....🙏
I’m really not a big fan of popping pills—truthfully, I hate taking any kind of medication or supplements—so I think I'll go do some digging to see where I can actually find it...

Michelle Cook83 said:So, you’ve got plenty of fish on the menu, some zinc supplements, and a whole heap of antioxidants like vitamins A, C, and E... basically just a giant pile of stuff that sounds like it belongs in a wellness retreat in Sedona.

Zinc, huh? Honestly, if you're looking to load up on that stuff, you’ve got options, but it really depends on whether you're hitting the grocery store or grabbing some supplements. If we're talking straight food, oysters are basically the heavy hitters—like, they're off the charts. Then you've got beef, maybe some pumpkin seeds if you're feeling healthy, or even chickpeas if you're doing the whole plant-based thing. I remember reading somewhere that certain fortified cereals are also pretty loaded with it too. Just don't go overboard with the pills without checking with a doctor first, because nobody needs that kind of imbalance. Anyway, what's the plan? Cooking something specific or just trying to boost the immune system?
Wait, fish? How exactly are we talking about fish here?? And like, what kind of fish are we even discussing? I feel like I missed a whole chapter of this conversation.

So, where can I find A, C, and E without getting absolutely fleeced? Like, seriously, where are they hiding if you actually want to find them in bulk?😬

Kimberly Williams45 said:So, my better half recently went and broke his leg—total disaster—and while we were just scrolling through the web, we stumbled onto some advice about upping his nutrition to help things heal. Apparently, we need to go heavy on the calcium and protein. So, basically, it’s time to go all out on the milk and smash some steak!

Oh, you know the one... honestly, who even bothers with lunch if there isn't any meat on the plate? Total waste of time.

Michelle Cook83 said:The cost can run up to two years. It’s no wonder you’re hurting. You should probably try some heat therapy right now—maybe sit in a warm bath and try to get that ankle moving again.


Two whole years???
Man, I had no idea it took that much time.😕
Is there anything actually doable to help out?? Like, you know, stuff that speeds up the healing process???
Maybe I should start throwing more specific things into my diet????😬

dustytinker11 said:I couldn't even get moving because my wound hadn't healed for almost six months...👎
then I finally started walking again, maybe around the 12-month mark, but then I went and broke it all over again around month 9 or 10... they told me way back that I could walk, but honestly, the pain was just too much, so I hung out for a few more weeks waiting it out..

My bike fell right on my leg, so there isn't an open wound or anything, just a massive impact.
though I'll probably end up with a nasty one soon enough since I've got this huge hematoma from a ruptured vessel—basically, the blood had nowhere to go because there wasn't an opening, so I guess it'll eventually have to break through the skin to let the pressure out...👎

So, which part did you actually break???
Did they skip the cast because of the wound or what????
Were you even allowed to put any weight on that leg???

dustytinker11 said:so, okay... I broke my ankle over six months ago... and I'm fine now, mostly... walking normally and all that... though I haven't dared to try running yet, honestly don't even know if I should...
well, so a few days ago it started hurting while I walk, like, a lot, and it just feels like something inside isn't quite right—and yeah, I still have those plates in the joint—plus it looks a little bit out of alignment... at least, that's how it looked when I first got out of the hospital, except now it's not swollen anymore so you can actually see it better... is that okay? I mean, should I be worried? I have a follow-up appointment in a month, but I'd much rather just go in sooner... what do you guys think? 😕

oh, and I still get these tingling sensations in my foot too... everything about this feels weird and nobody is really telling me anything...🙏


hm, maybe that pain could be tied to the weather... it’s been all over the place lately... my mom broke hers once and she always says it aches whenever the pressure changes...
how long since you were back on your feet?

oh, and if I can jump in here too—I broke my own ankle exactly 30 days ago (ended up being the bone running from the knee down to the ankle)... I've got about 10 days left in this cast... what do you guys recommend doing once it's off? ...and man, I wish I knew if swimming is the best way to go because I live like three minutes from the beach (okay, fifteen... haha), but when do you think I could actually start standing on it? I was hoping to get some activity in this summer...

I’m pretty sure you haven't actually lived yet... 😁
Let me give you the real deal: spend the whole damn day breaking your back on a construction site—hauling heavy bags of cement, mixing concrete, just doing some real, gritty physical labor—and then crack open two or three ice-cold beers. Trust me, once you feel that, you'll finally know what it means to actually be somewhere... 😬 😬 though you already know you’ve gotta wake up and do the exact same thing tomorrow... man, you'll end up being as bitter as a dockworker in Jersey City after a double shift.
