My bone broke almost in half!

They showed me the X-rays. A chip broke off the side, and there’s an uneven break going almost all the way across the bone.

She’s putting me in a walking boot for 6 weeks, followed by a brace for a couple months.

You’re very lucky. This book is pressing against where I broke a chip of the knob on my ankle and it really hurts. I told them it hurts a lot, and they said “Sorry! It will. Unfortunately there’s no magic pill to make it feel better “. But I’ll tough it out. I’ll be ok.

It does hurt @Bongogo, even with the boot on. But the dr said it’s going to hurt for a while. I’ll be ok though. I just need to get used to the boot
