Hubs and I went out for a really nice dinner last night. I took our dog out to use the bathroom when we got home, tripped down the stairs and sprained my ankle. UH!!!!!!!! What am I going to do now?!?!?
Hey, I did almost the same thing. I lost my footing on the stairs, luckily I had my hand on the rail. Landed on my butt, ankle and back. My ankle and back still hurt A LOT.
If your ankle is still swollen, alternate between ice and heat in 5 minute intervals. Also: BE CAREFUL!
Ouch. I was unbalanced a lot with DS. This time around, I have only fallen once. I blame DS...trying to jump down the stairs instead of walking. *SIGH*. Just give the ankle some rest. Wrap it, ice it.

Oh that sucks.
Rest up and take care of yourself.
