When I was young, I scared people prey on me.

Nowadays, I scared people DON'T prey on me. :rotflmao:

Good for you! btw, gout can happen to ANY joint.. I've seen it... esp when the joint is already weaken by injuries.. dh has it in the ankle 90% of the time, and he usually 'wakes up' to a relapse... will pray for u, hopefully the results will be an all-clear... better sprain than gout...

how about just a minor sprain? I was walking down the elevator when I sprained my ankle(rushing for tuition). I still can walk though not painful but when you make a full turn with the ankle it does hurt. How like that? Aiya very unlucky leh few days before PSLE go sprain my ankle...

Better take care, KiasuAdult. Just have to slog thru these 2 weeks and bring glory to your school for PSLE. Jiayou!

Heel spurs were causing tremendous pain in my feet, and even multiple visits to the orthopedist, chiropractor, and acupuncturist were barely keeping me going. I work in healthcare and am on my feet all day, and I also enjoy an active, outdoor, lifestyle. These shoes have allowed me to stay in my job and keep hiking, biking, and staying on the go. I have many pairs of the Orthofeet shoes and wear them ALL the time. Their return policy makes it easy to try several styles and easily return the ones I don’t like, and with the regular introduction of new styles, I don’t feel like I’m tied to some out-dated, clunky, shoes. I have called and email chatted with several different support over the past 2 years, and have always gotten good advice and service. My advise for those people who are wondering if Orthofeet shoes will help is to just try them. If they don’t help, send them back.

keep elevating it like usual. Have heat for 20 minutes no more and no less.Then switch it to heat (a heating pad) for 20 minutes. no more, no less.If put ice/heat for less than 20 minutes then you aren’t getting anything done but if you do more the blood vessels will actually start to do the opposite effect you want because you will either be burning the blood (with heat) or freezing it too much (with ice).Make sure you also use your ankle a little bit. Resting it too much will make it feel more painful once you do use it. So make sure you are walking around for a little while before you start to ice it and heat it to get your ankle used to walking again.
