Sometimes sprained ankles are worse than breaks. When I was still skateboarding, I stalled on a pebble that was in a pool and came down on my ankle wrong severly spraining it. Had to have two operations to repair the ligaments and was in a cast for close to 6 months. Then to add to my rotten luck, a week after the cast was removed, went to skate the same pool, took a wrong line on the vertical, shot out about 9ft out of the pool and came down in the deep end landing on my shoulder dislocating the collar bone. Was in a shoulder cast for 10 months and had to have 2 more surgeries to repair the rotator cuff and nerve damage.
