Sprained Foot

DIAGNOSIS: Sprained Foot

Today I went to the podiatrist, who confirmed after 6 x-rays, I have a sprained foot with:

  • strained ligament

  • tendonitis

  • bruised bone

Fun fact: I learned that I have some “accessory bones” and some were fractured and bruised

TREATMENT: Stay off my foot

I was told to stay off my foot for at least 2 weeks and return for another assessment. I asked the doctor if I could walk home (10 blocks and 1 avenue) and was given a thumbs down.

I am basically on lockdown for 2 weeks, but worse because I cannot even go out for a walk or anything.

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN? Fighting Bad Guys

At this point you’re probably wondering how did this happen? Ironically, I injured myself in a self defense class during one of the drills learning to beat up bad guys.

Visitors and food are welcome, wish me luck!
