Ouuch Ouuch

Shit I sprained my ankle in yesterday's game. I am now limping. Though the pain is not as excruciating as previous sprained incident, it is still PAIN. I can walk slowly but cannot run. Trying not to let my mother know I sprained my ankle lest let her worry.

I remember the days where I sprained my feet and fingers. She would bring to me a nearby physican. This physcian works from his home. He lives in those 1 room flat with his wife. He would asked me to sit down, checked the swollen areas before mixing the medicine. First he would PULL MY LEG so as to loosen the blood clot. IT HURTS LIKE HELL. I always cried until the neighbouring block could hear me. I would kick the poor old man. He would pull for around 10mins. Then he would apply a black mixture on my feet. PAIN again as the mixture is BOILING HOT. After he bandaged my feet, he gave my mum some medicine to ensure a speedy recovery. For a few days, went bathing, I had to wrap my feet in a few plastic bags to avoid contact with water.

Now the flat he stayed has been demolished. 2 years back I sprained my feet while playing soccer. Went to his house in Tampines for treatment. His son doesn't like the medicinal smell so advises his father not to treat people and rest at home. I wondered what can a western doctor do to heal a facture.

1)X-ray to see fracture bones
2) Does he pull your feet back into position?

at least doctors use anathestic less painful.
3) Plaster your feet to keep the bones in place?
4) Carry clutches for a few weeks?

5) Ask your friends to sign on your cast HAHHAHAHHAHA.
