Wipe Out
Posted on October 19th, 2016 by mollybrumder
I ate it on my sons stuffed animal Sunday night. I fell full force onto my repaired achilles. I fell to the ground, certain I had ruptured it again. Once I calmed down, I called the on-call doctor who informed me it most likely did not re-rupture with me wearing the boot. I still wasn’t convinced, as my pain went form a normal 2 at rest, up to a 6. It took about 24 hours with increased pain medications and rest before I was convinced that I didn’t re-rupture it. I believe minimal damage was done, maybe only stretched it…….Hope that was the one and only fall I will have.
