    Ankle Injury? Help?

    About a month and a half ago I sprained my ankle pretty bad while playing basketball... It took about 3 weeks to completely heal, but now that its better, if i move my foot up and down, i hear a crack... not every time but pretty frequently.. Is this something to worry about?

    Nope, not at all.. it's just weird.

    I never went to the hospital for the "sprain"(I say it like that because im not positive thats what it was, but i'm pretty sure it wasn't broken, as I was walking on it fine after about 2 1/2 weeks.)

    cracking and poping of joints is pretty common. If it isn't hurting I wouldn't worry about. If you are nervous, go to the Doctor and get it checked out.

    I just rolled my ankle Monday night playing basketball. We only had 5 guys on my league team and one of our players has a bad sprain on his ankle. I stepped on his foot while we were trying to catch our breath on a fast break and rolled mine over. It is still swollen and has turned black and blue.

    I hate being old. From the age of 8 till about 23 I would recover from a bad sprain in 3-4 days. Now it takes ages to heal.

    Indeed. I get cracking and popping in my joints all the time with no associated pain or restriction on ROM whatsoever.
    The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...
