Bending downwards is nearly impossible so I first have to put my hurt foot on the next step, then my good foot, then to the next step with my hurt foot, etc. This sucks since our house seems to be made up out of stairs (24 including several 3/4 step stairs).
Got a good excuse to take it easy in the store next week, it's still incredibly busy and I hadn't have enough time for my usual January/start of the month chores so I might get those finally done. |
The icing in cycles is supposed to help keep from damaging tissues with the ice, something I picked up back when I was badly spraining by ankle half a dozen times or more a year. That and to keep wrapping it for at least a week after I think it's healed.
