My ankle pain was felt during a game of cricket whilst Bowling. Pain is felt on the left side (laterally) of the ankle and shoots alongside the achilles tendon.
Xrays and MRI show no tendon/ligament problems only a bruised bone in that area and a specialist has said that a build up of blood flow in the bone during excersise is causing the associated pain. Treatment suggested is total rest for upto 12 MONTHS!!
I was wondering if anyone had similar symptoms and what their recovery period is?

Have'nt been to Perth for a while, "12 month's" I would get a second opinion myself, 12 months seems a long time.

Have a good un, cheers John Murphy :wink:
