(77,276 posts)We all thought it was a sprain, but after a couple days, it was a different kind of pain.
Xray showed the fibula was cracked.
ZERO displacement. The break looked like someone took a ruler & pencil and drew a line across the bone.
I've had 3 ankle sprains from basketball. No breaks though. One high, two low.
The high ankle sprain was quite a drag.

I walk slowly and carefully to avoid doing it though.
