That's what I'm seeing, 6-8 weeks. It may as well have been season ending.I'm not a doctor but I did learn a lot about ankle sprains a couple of months ago.
I didn't know that there were 3 levels of sprains until then. Most of the stains that I've had over the years were level 1 sprains and were better in a week.
A couple of months ago I had a level 2 sprain. It wasn't so much the swelling which was bad, it was the stability of the ankle which was about 3 weeks even with a walking boot. I could walk on it right off but very carefully.
A level 3 sprain means that the tendon is torn and you can't walk on it. From seeing how Mac could not walk on it and was in severe pain, it looks to my nonprofessional eyes that this is a level 3 sprain. I'm expecting that he won't be playing for a a month or more. I hope that I'm wrong.
Well then I'm probably totally wrong.That's what I'm seeing, 6-8 weeks. It may as well have been season ending.
OK, 'pretty severe'. Doesn't sound great does it??
