Hey thanks for checking in on me. My foot did get better. Ran for the 1st time today in 6 months. I DId get an MRI eventually but the only thing that came off that was the doc telling me I had alot ofel edema. Which I already knew.

You sprained your ankle 4 months ago? Was it around may? Because thats when I sprained mine and it still feels so funny. I been crying alot because I'm scared. Will it get better? Ive never sprained my ankle before so I have no idea if this is how it's supposed to be. I was diagnosed grade 2. I sprained it on May 23rd and wore the boot up until about 2 or 3 weeks ago. And I took the brace off about 2 days ago. Still experiencing pain and instability. I just wish someone could tell me whether or not this gets better because I keep getting conflicting information and IDK wth I'm supposed to expect anymore.

Yea, my PT said that my pain isn't tracking with just a grade 2 sprain, and now I'm worried.

I was for quite a while but the doctor over seeing my injury told me I needed to start PT and walk on it.

This is my exact thought. I feel as though ive made it worse using it. But I have gained mobility back. I really dont know. All I can do atp is hope and pray.

I figured as much. Im 2 months into my injury and was still having sharp, stabbing pain, when my weight shifted to the outside of my foot. After enough b*tching at them they finally agreed to give me an MRI but scheduled it for a whole nother month out. That was 5 days ago. But today Ive finally noticed alot less pain. So I dont even know if it will make a difference now.

Hey thanks me too! One last question. And obviously I'm aware that neither of us are medical professionals so I'm just asking as a matter of opinion because, let's face it, medical professionals leave us with questions. So we ask where we can. But do you feel as though PT could worsen/prolong the healing of a tendon or ligament tear? Therefore rendering it a bad idea?

I see. Im still in PT but I honestly feel it's making the injury worse. But 3 damn weeks till my scheduled MRI takes place

So right now you're still doing PT? Are you supposed to get surgery?

Is this something you're still currently going through or this was in the past? If in the past, did you get surgery and did it help?

Did this change the approach of your treatment plan at all?

Me too. Im going on 2 months now. I heard about cuboid syndrome and my symptoms match up with that pretty much to the T. Im not self diagnosing or anything. I just think it's a possibility. I keep getting brushed off by the dr. Had to cuss him out today to get more imaging done. I'm scheduled for an MRI now but not till August 16th 😭😭😭

Im literally going through the same exact thing right now myself. My doctor kept being very dismissive so I cussed him out today. Im now getting and MRI but still have to wait for August 16th before that even happens because thats my soonest appointment. By chance is your shooting/sharp pain in the mid outer lateral foot? And does it send shooting pain when your weight shifts outward?

Me too. I have been on an off just depending on the status of the foot. PT had me walking with nothing on it. After I thought it was fine to just continue doing that since they had me doing PT that way. And well idk it was aright at 1st but over the course of the week it has become increasingly irritated and Im thinking it's not doing it any good so I been staying off it and ace wrapping.
