Me And My Ankle Pains

I happen to have some of the weakest ankles you'll ever see. But today I screwed them up big time. Normally about once every so many months I land on it wrong and it hurts like a motherfucker.  It was in gym and we were playing basketball and when I block I like to mess around and crouch low with my legs spread out and jump up and down up and down over and over again and at them. It's a fail block but it's funny. And then I tried to jump over my friend or something and fell over and landed and bent it horribly. It was that or I jumped to block a pass he got from someone else and tripped. All I know is it's sprained and when I got to the nurse it was puffy as fuck. I'm not playing, it was puffed out like a half inch. And I'd been walking around on it for 4 hours without much complaint. After I got to the doctor they said I had to stay off of it for a while and try not to walk around as much. What sucks ass though is that when I walk around after staying still a while my ankle just shoots up. I can hop around fast well though, but when I hold my foot up while hopping I forget and snap the ankle down which hurts like a bitch. I can hold it up though, without any pain. If I really wanted to I could walk around on crutches, I'm good on those from messing with my brother's as a kid. But if I go to school it'll be annoying to go around with. There is one up to it though, I got my doctor to write me a note that tells my teachers to let me put my feet up in class. And one teacher, that I happen to dislike, hates for people to put their feet on chairs or asses on desks. But what annoys me the most is that I have to be careful. I can't run for a week, or participate in gym. I'm going to gain some weight cause I can't move around a lot either or act super wild. I'm going to have a break time without having asked for it. And then when I want to shower I need to take a bandage wrap off and rewrap it later, something that I happen to be bad at doing.
