softball injury...


Question Posted Tuesday June 2 2009, 9:43 pm

16/f. [kinda long sorry]
i play softball for my school, well tonight at my game i was sliding into home and i went to slide. when i did i collided with the catcher. my ankle basically jammed up against her leg, when she went to move to get the ball she stepped on my ankle. It's now all puffy,really red, and super bruised. I was carried off the field. [safe by the way..ha] i ended up playing 1st again next inning, however i was in serious pain, but we had no other 1st basemen. Now, i can barely walk and i can't even put a sock on. However, i've broken my ankle before, and it looks nothing like that. anyone have any idea on what it might be?

Hi! Ya, it could be a bad sprain, but also a fracture. I play softball for my school too and th same thing happened to me except I was in a pickle between 1st and 2nd base and I collided with the 2nd baseman and they fell on my ankle. When I took it in, they said I had a bad fracture, so you may have that. You should get it checked. =D Hope this helps you!

It could be a bad sprain or even torn ligaments.
I would suggest seeing a doctor if it doesn't feel better soon.

Here are the RICE rules for sprains though. Not a bad idea to start there until you can seek medical attention.
