Guest guest Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 Okay, last month, Nov 4th to be prezact I took a header in the garage twisting my ankle... no pain but later that night I noticed the puppy had swollen like three times it's normal size but no bruising... well, it's over a month later. Puppy is STILL swollen. A little pain, achey kind of stuff, I don't even limp, well hardly ever. Question is, what can I do about this. Quite frankly I'd like it to go away... any suggestions, short of chopping it off, will be considered. K -- Cheers!

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 Woman, You are falling apart! *lol* If it is STILL swollen a month later you very well might have a fracture - even a small one. I remember my mom having fractures in her ankles when I was a kid, and at that time they basically did nothing for them except have her get arches in her shoes after they naturally healed, but if you have insurance, might be worth a trip to the quack to get a diagnosis, and THEN we can work on alternative methods of taking care of whatever it is! *Smile* Chris (list mom - who hopes THIS message actually makes it - at least 2 of my messages have gotten stuck in cyber space - and Mercury retrograde is over - I know, lingering trails of it remain - like nausea after a rollercoaster ;-p ) http://www.alittleolfactory.com Preview The New Site ~ A Work In Progress! http://www.alittleolfactory.com/main2.htm On Behalf Of Woobey Queen Okay, last month, Nov 4th to be prezact I took a header in the garage twisting my ankle... no pain but later that night I noticed the puppy had swollen like three times it's normal size but no bruising... well, it's over a month later.

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2005 Report Share Posted December 7, 2005 This is very eerie, as I have done the same thing, on the same day, however, it was in the house and I didn't fall. Mine too, is still swollen, but I am limping most of the time. I would love some helpful advice also. Michele P (MI) Personals Let fate take it's course directly to your email.

Just a thought ;-) And whether you do or you don't..... You could certainly make a trauma oil- with infused Arnica and St. John's Wort. Rosemary, Peppermint, Lavender Helichrysum is also very helpful for sprains obviously- nice with the St. John's Wort infused oil. Other considerations (oh so many possibilities): Chamomile, german Marjoram Cypress > > Question is, what can I do about this.

Helichrysum and SJW- cause you sound like you mean it ;-) Oh yeah and stay off it. > > K Feel better- E.

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 Ah GEE Elizabeth, " Kathleen, do you think you might want to get a good old fashioned medical exam/ x ray? Just a thought ;-) " You mean actually break down and go to the hospital for ME instead of the kids and husband. Certainly a novel idea... rather startling one actually... Hmmm. Me. Volutarily walk into a hospital without something being vitally wrong... Well, it's a THOUGHT! ROFLMAO! Yes, I've considered it and as the aching seems to be more pronounced lately, I may actually have to do that. >sigh< Thanks for the suggestions... I have arnica oil, it's like 5 years old, but as long as it doesn't stink... can't hurt. ;-) K -- Cheers!

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 - Michele P This is very eerie, as I have done the same thing, on the same day, however, it was in the house and I didn't fall. Mine too, is still swollen, but I am limping most of the time. I would love some helpful advice also. Just a note: My daughter still has a hard lump in her ankle from an injury years ago playing baseball when a girl stomped on her ankle coming into base. She originally had it x-rayed,they said it was not anything to do for it. Years later she is still bothered by it. Colleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 Make this my ad for the week, it happens to be Thursday! I was demonstrating Recovazon Gel at the farmer's market when someone limped up to my table with a severely painful ankle. She told me she had sprained it a few days ago. Or maybe it was longer ago, I don't remember. Anyway, we put some Recovazon Gel on it, and a few minutes later she was telling the whole market that I had " cured " her! Most satisfying. I never saw her again, and she did not have the good sense to buy a tube, so I have no idea what happened next. If you'd like to know more, email me off list, and I will send some more Recovazon info. It is great stuff for anything muscular. Handy for insect stings too. The gel came about because so many people were applying liquid Recovazon topically, and that was messy. ienvan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
