Ankle pain from walking



Recommended Posts

Hat are done excersizes that I could do when I hurt my ankle while just walking? I had it X-ray and it wasn't broken. But it won't stop hurting when I put any kind of pressure on it. I've been doing the bicycle and weight lifting but I was wondering if there were other options other than that and swimming.

I know that you asked for stuff besides swimming. If you do have access to a pool, you could walk in the pool, which would put a lot less force on your ankle.

I encourage you to take it very easy on your ankle since you feel pain in it. Also if you have access to a gym, most cardio machines put far less stress on your joints than walking would. Something like a concept 2 rowing machine would be great because you don't have to support your body weight on your feet while you are doing the exercise.

You need to go see an orthopedic surgeon that specializes in ankles! You might have what I have...PTTD. And it only gets worse if it is not treated. Stay off the treadmill. That was hard for me because I loved walking. If you have questions private message me. Get this checked out!

Hope you feel better,

Nicky

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
