I Sprained My Foot
I sprained my left foot in Tae Kwon Do last night. It was a sparring class, we were doing drills and I stepped backwards with my left foot and hear snap crackle and pop and then felt a lot of pain. The x-rays show that nothing was broken, but my Tae Kwon Do instructor things that I probably have tissue and/or ligament damage. I can move my foot side to side but it doesn’t much more up and down and when I try to curl my toes only my big toe and the toe next to it curl, the other ones won’t move. I am wearing a soft cast now and am using crutches. I’m supposed to take the cast off after two days, which will be Sunday night/Monday morning. Hopefully I can walk on it after because I do not want to have to be on crutches in school, which will just make traveling to class difficult. I had to skip work today because of this. I have an appointment with an Orthopedist on Tuesday morning. Hopefully he says I’m fine, but if there is really bad damage I may not be able to do Tae Kwon Do, Jujutsu, or Ballroom Dancing for several months

In the end though, I’m just glad it wasn’t my right foot, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to drive anywhere.
