hi.. me again, the broken pilgrim..
i just got back from working at a festival, and am on crutches. i was planning to start my camino in mid september, but am not sure if i will be fit.
what happened was someone picked me up, then lost his balance and slamed me down full force with all my weight and his on my foot which was sideways, but while somehow pressing my leg to be a 90 degree angle. miraculously, it isnt broken. but its a very pretty rainbow colored swollen thing with two hyperextended bands (dont know englisch.. baender auf deutsch), a dislocated bone, and an inner bleeding (?.. blut erguss).
how long should i wait before walking? are there any tricks to strengthening it quicker?
