Subject: Cortisone injection into ankle Just wondering if anyone has any stories about ankle injuries. bit of background, 9 weeks ago I fractured my foot and badly sprained my ankle. the fracture has taken longer to heal then it ws supposed to but its mending. I was in a cam walker for 7 weeks. 2 weeks out of the boot and my ankle is still not responding to any treatment and is not behaving as the physio says it should. Had a ct scan yesterday jsut to make sure there is no bone damage. that came back pretty clear and its definitely tendon and ligament damage causing the pain, still limping around and finding it difficult to walk. Sports dr suggested a cortisone injection which I had yesterday, it hurts alot right now but he said that would be the case for the first 2 days and should come good tomorrow. anyone else had a cortisone injection in their ankle that I can kinda of compare? |
