Ankle sprain partII

Assalammualaikum w.b.k.t

Good morning everyone.
Alhamdulillah, today it has been nearly 8 days I sprained my ankle, and the swelling at my ankle is getting better as the swollen foot has started to reduce in size. However, the pain is still there. It's pretty hard to bend my foot in order to pray so I decided to sit while praying and the latest trial to pray normally have failed. It was pretty pain yesterday when it was to duduk antara dua sujud and tahayat akhir.. Somehow I ended up bending my foot like bersimpuh. That's the best I could do.

Alright talking about swollen foot, according to the doctors that I met, they said it is because of the fluids. I wondered what fluids they were talking about and decided to google it. Thus, I found this information:

"Ankle swelling causes the accumulation of fluid within the ankle joint or in the soft tissues surrounding the ankle" (Cluett, n.d)

Now I know, why there is an enlargement of my foot especially when I bandaged my foot. It is actually caused from the buildup of fluid in the foot tissues. Someone told me that it is maybe caused by the soft tissues injury `wink2 ;)

Therefore, in order to reduce the swelling that I have encountered, I need to listen to the advices given by the doctors which is to raise my leg above my heart while lying down especially at night. I just need to put two pillows under my foot.

Besides that, based on the research that I have done from the internet, it is recommended for me to exercise my leg. One of the exercises that I have read is by lying down and raising the injured leg. Then move the foot by virtually write the alphabets (A-Z) in the air using the foot. This helps to pump fluid from legs back to the heart. (Actually I haven't done this exercise-maybe after this..haha)

Okay, so after going to three different clinics, below are the  medicine that I got:



At first I went to the clinic in Dungun with the help of Azyan. She came and fetched me at home to the clinic.. Thanx a lot Yan for your time.I was given medical leave by the doctor for 2 days. She wanted me to come back if there is no recovery seen. So from 18th of May until 19th of May, I just stayed at home resting. Papa took me home(K.T) on the 18th.  Then, since there have been no recovery seen towards my swollen foot, I decided to go to other clinic in K.T. The doctor also gave me another 2 days M.C. She recommended me to x-ray my foot since the swelling was still there even after almost 5 days but she said there's no x-ray in the clinic so she asked me to go to other clinic.

So, on 24th of April I went to another clinic that has x-ray service as suggested by the previous doctor. Below are the conversations that I made between the doctor and me:

Me:  Doc, kaki sy ni bengkak tak surut2..dari minggu lepas lagi..kalau sy balut lagi ah sembab..
Doctor: Bese ah tuh.. Spreng..Spreng..
Me: Spreng??? (Puzzled and imagining a spring. Maybe he meant for me to use a spring for a   treatment)
Doctor: Yelah kiter panggil spreng.. S. P. R. A. I . N..(siap mengeja)
Me: Owh sprainnnn...(Increase the tone) Sprained ankle...
Doctor: (Terus senyap)...Bunyi cengkerik..kikiki

When I recalled back the conversation, rasa nak tergelak pun ada.. Tapi takpelah..mati-mati ingat spring apa tah..hahaha

Terseliuh buku lali

Hye.. Lama dah rasanya tak update blog ni.. I just want to update about my latest experience that I encountered 2 days ago.


For your information, below is the picture of my foot after an hour I sprained my ankle. Jatuh terpelecok smalam semasa bermain netball. Lompat camne tah, sedar2 rasa cam kaki kanan dah terpeleot n I could imagine myself bending my foot like a rubber 90 degrees..Tak tahan banyak just rebah atas court n terdiam..Tuhan je yg tau macammana takutnya masa tuh..sebab takut patah kan.Kak Ila (pelatih sukan) suruh aku lunjurkan kaki aku and jangan gerakkan sgt. Dia suruh cari ice and tuam kat situ. Thanx a lot to Yuha sebab sudi berkejar p beli ice.. terharunya..

Sakitnya takyah cakap ah..masa bubuh ais tu lagilah sakitnya..Tahan je.. tapi luckily I can still walk but then slow2 ah. Balik je rumah ingat pesan Kak Ila supaya tuam je dengan ice every 20 minutes. Kak G pun pesan supaya jgn urut, just letak minyak panas bila nak tdo. So aku buat je cam diorang cakap n masa tu tak terpiker pun nak ke klinik atau ke tukang urut sebab this is my first time dealing with sprained ankle yg agak rabak..

  (Gini ah demo I jatuh, terpeleot camni tahap 90 degrees)


                        


So malam semalam lepas puas tuam ngan ice, aku pun telefonlah papa. Papa marah aku kot. Dia cakap tulah sape suruh beli lagi kasut tuh. Actually I just bought a pair of sport shoes just for the sake of playing netball. My mom accompanied me there and helped me to choose it. Actually I wasn't quite sure which shoes to be bought.The first reason is of coz..Last aku main masa sekolah menengah. Tu pun main suka2 je bukan untuk tournament bagai.

So disebabkan aku takde kasut yg proper, yg ada kasut main badminton n kasut puma yg ala2 kasut futsal(version jalan2) so aku pun pergilah al-ikhsan beli kasut. Takde banyak sgt pilihan. Tapi aku ada try beberapa pasang and I decided to pick this one as bila pakai rasa slesa gila walaupun colour dia camtu ;p:




Tragik nyer rasa tak payah cakap..My first night punyalah sakit sampai takleh nak tidur. mengiring ke kiri tak kena, ke kanan tak kena, tegakkan kaki tak kena..semua sakit..Last resort is meniarap..Barulah I made it to fall asleep.. Tu pun terjaga pukul 3 lebih sebab skt..so bgn letak ah minyak gamat..Sapu perlahan2..Rasa nak jerit2 je tapi bertahan je.



Ni dah masuk 2 hari n alhamdulillah kesakitan masa first day dah kurang tapi masih skit nak menapak..Berat je kaki..kaki cam bengkak sebelah.. Ni lah keadaanya:


Sorry, real image is only available upon request




Comel je ice mama bagi pagi tadi sebab aku mintak tolong mama amikkan ice nak tuam kaki yg bengkak..Sekali dia bagi yg bentuk love plak..Thanx ma..
