Subject: RE: Out of ServiceOi, I feel your pain ( literally ). I did the same thing about a year and a half ago. Mine wasn't even doing anything training related, just sheer not paying attention to the treeroot in the yard.
It made a nice crunching sound too. Fortunately I didn't break anything, but I've really stretched out the tendons and ligaments in my ankle now ( I also have many years of soccer and lacrosse ankle turns too ).
Keep with the PT. Do the silly ankle circles. They'll really help, and you'll get back on your feet ( hah! ) sooner if you stick to the regimine.
I still use an ankle brace occsionally ( such as now, as I turned it again last week running outside... *sigh* ), but other than that, it hasn't hampered my training much at all.
Here's wishing you a speedy and healthy recovery!
