So after a pretty intense weekend of biking I've got a bad ankle. As usual no appointments at the docs so I thought I'd ask for some Internet diagnosis.
No actual knock to it as far as i remember, but the sticky out bit on the outside of the ankle is killing. When I move the foot up and down it creaks over that area, and when I say creaks it's almost audible but you can certainly feel it.
Ideas?
Spray it with Gt85, open a beer, wait thoughtfully for 15 minutes staring at it, then hit it with a hammer.
You have what's known as a bad ankle.
G.A.S - Classic case.
try your local physio
Sounds like malaria to me.
From what I have learnt from listening to the [i]speed metal cycling podcast[/i] it sounds like a severe case of knee herpes, do not speak nor come into physical contact with anyone else, go directly to your GP.
Statistically, given long enough and some RICE, it'll get better...

(this doesn't constitute real medical advice. Though is true)
Do what the Dr says, eat rice.
G.A.S.- Goal Attainment Scaling?!
Nothing to worry about, it's just a worn ankle, or ****le.
Cheers, Dr Oetker
Did you drink any of that Welsh water whilst you were away?
Try some 10% ibuprofen gel, ice, rest and chocolate cake.
I knew a bloke with your symptoms, God rest his soul.
Audible creaking ime is tendinitis. FA you can do beyond RICE\MICE. I used to get it across the top of my feet when road marathon training, it can be bloody painful.

Nah - Gammy Ankle Syndrome.
Our trust ran out of money for rice and mice (was initially offered in a stir fry).
Just rice now.

Sounds like aids
Forget RICE or MICE, POLICER is where it's at now. Protect, Optimal Loading, Ice, Compression, Elevation and Rehab.
It can be cured by growing a pony tail.
W.W.S. (weekend warrior syndrome) see also "bad knee" & "burning Achilles tendon" all caused by intense weekend sport after a week of inactivity
Forget RICE or MICE or POLICER, and aks (yes, aks) yourself:
