I broke my ankle 3 years ago and am still having major pain, been diagnosed with CRPS but managing pain quite well, I have problems with my ankle swelling so much I lose the will to live, the pain is horrendous thankfully only intermittantlly and I cannot get shoes, socks or boots on. Its a good thing I love my slippers x I have had every test going but no one knows what is going on, anyone else had a similar problem please,x

May I suggest that use iced Ace bandages and were possible raising your ankle above your heart. Good luck, Richard

First if I was in pain, I'd take pain meds .I don't believe in hurting if I don't have to. Have you tried compression stockings and elevating your foot as much as possible? I had to go to wound care when I was recovering and they were great fans compression stocking even for ppl with out a problem. The doctor was even wearing them.I have to say they helped me with swelling. I also did epsom salt soaks and I had an icepack that looked like mud and molded to my foot when I put it on. Are you using the same doctor or did you get other opinions as to why you are still having these problems??? Good luck and hang in there.
