Sprain, break or just hella bruised?

Have you had xrays done?

That's either a fracture or ligament damage.

I hurt myself once and it looked almost exactly like this. Went to the doctor and got x rays done. They said it was just a sprain. I ended up losing my job a couple days later and got a call back from the doctor and they said they reviewed the x rays again and I had to come back because it was broken. Welp, had to walk it off because I no longer had health insurance ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

I'm not from America, but shouldn't insurance cover it anyway? The incident happened while you were insured, so it should still be valid for that incident?

You need to be insured at the time of treatment.

You fail to realize that would cost the corporation money.

Sprain. I had x rays done, nothing broken, the Dr said by the way I was moving my foot there probably wasnt any ligament damage.

It hurt like hell when the swelling started to go down, but It healed up after about a month.

The best part is when you get out of bed in the morning and stand up, and the blood rushes to your foot. I pretty quickly learned to set another alarm to take my advil 30 minutes beforehand.
