1/5 Ankle Injury

Talk about when you hurt your ankle.

I remember hurting my ankle a few months ago. I was walking down the stairs and I twisted my ankle. It was very painful. I went to see the doctor immediately. Fortunately, I didn't break a bone or anything, but I had to put a bandage around my ankle. I couldn't walk around freely and had to use crutches. I also took some medicine to ease the pain and make it heal faster. I had to spend most of the time on the sofa watching TV. It was one of the worst injuries in my life, as far as I'm concerned.
