op & crack. these two sounds were the scariest thing i've ever heard in my entire life. imagine you snapping your two fingers by your ear. that was how loud it was. immediately i dropped on the ground clutching my ankle fearing the worst. for a moment i thought i just broke my ankle. it was so severe that there was immediate numbness on my right ankle. it twisted almost 90 degrees outwards. When i heard the pop sound, i felt my ankle being out of place momentarily. it seemed innocuous. everyone was congratulating me for the goal. i couldn't scream for help. it was as if my leg was on fire. luckily my team manager was there and he sensed something was wrong. they carried me to the side and i saw a huge ass bulge on the right of my ankle. it scared the shit out of me. sweating profusely. took out my boots and socks, to my relieve i didn't see anything protruding or anything peculiar except for a swollen ankle. tried moving my toes, ahh. it moved. phew! of all the numerous of ankle injuries i had, this is by far the worst. the pain was unbearable to the point i cried. yes. i cried. fuck. it hurt like hell. back home at night, i couldn't sleep. kept hearing the pop & crack sound. it went for hours. ergh. after taking a couple of painkillers i managed to sleep. woke up the next morning and my ankle looked like a puffer fish. last saturday i just twisted my left ankle and now this. and im still not mentally healed from that horrendous tackle. well maybe not horrendous but it was still scary nonetheless. it took me a few months on my last injury previously to be able to go in 50 50 tackles. now i'm not too sure if i can bring myself to get my hands dirty in the field. never would i want to go through this experience again. we shall see huh. hopefully i'll get over it.
