How did you break your ankle? Did it hurt?

Question

Just curiosity and NO im not going to break my ankle.

That would be stupid :|

Answer 1

i never broke my ankle, i just sprain it walking down the street and as i stepped upon the curb, i felt the pain in my ankle, but when i return home later on that night it started swelling, so i sought medical attention.

Answer 2

I was sitting on my friend's porch w/ my BF. We started to argue about something (can't remember what) And I got up and walked away. The porch that I though was about six inches from the ground (did I mention it was dark?) turned out to be four feet from the ground, and the little step off the porch turned out to be a 4 foot leap onto the side of my right ankle. Broke it in three places, dislocated it, and tore just about every ligament there. Yes, it hurt, but strangely I didn't know it at first. I told my bf, my friend, etc. to back off, I was okay. Then i tried to get up  and my ankle gave way.  

Answer 3

yes my ankle was broken for 2 weeks with out them noticing it on my xrays. i had been going to work with it broken to and im on my feet most of the day. dont get me wrong it hurt very bad though. thats just 1 of the 27 breaks in 12 different bones though thanks to a motorcycle accident prior.

Answer 4

A car hood fell and broke both my ankles. Yeah, it hurt.

Don't ask what I was doing!

Answer 5

Well I didn't exactly break my ankle, but 4 bones in my foot trying to ollie off a pretty high ledge while skating.

It hurt a bit, but I thought I just rolled my ankle and I left it for a week before seeing a doctor o.O

Answer 6

One of the many skateboarding injuries I have had over the years.

Totally worth it, though.

Answer 7

For me it's happened to me twice within two weeks of each other to both ankles. For the first ankle (my left one)  I attempted a back flip on my trampoline for the first time and jumped too far and landed on the ground with all the weight on my left ankle. Then two weeks later I was cleaning up my mess from the night before and was carrying my empties downstairs and was carrying too much and one of the cans still had stuff in it which spilled on to the stairs which I slipped on and fell down the stairs. Not fun and wouldn't recommend it. haha.

Answer 8

i was like going down one of those pole things you slide down at the playground and i landed on my foot wrong. it hurt becuz i was younger.

Answer 9

I broke mine ice skating.  I'm a bad skater and I fell forward. The figure skate's toe pick dug into the ice and held the boot, as I fell my fibula went through a twisting motion. By the time I hit the ice, it had completely broken.  I hoped it was a sprain, but was clearly broken as within 4 hours it had swollen like a grapefruit.  It hurt a ton and took 6+ weeks to heal, followed by therapy.  I try and avoid ice skating now.
