Two months ago I managed to damage my ankle ligament at the gym. I was off work for 4 weeks. Then I went abroad for 2 weeks and just had a couple of twinges but nothing to worry about. Now I am getting random pain. Also can't wear anything except flip-flops and trainers(anything else including flat sandals hurts). Any suggestions would be most appreciated. TIA

Ligament injuries can be difficult.

I tore some of the ligaments in my knee which made it unstable and ended up in plaster ankle to hip 6 weeks then had to have a load of physio, they said I'd have been better off breaking it.

Did you get it checked out properly?

Yes, had it x-rayed and prescribed anti-inflammatories and painkillers. Had to keep it bandaged up and not go to the gym! I think I will just have to go back to my GP......totally fed up with it!!
