[quote=Anonymous]I had a fall and the ankle turned black and blue. But I could tell no bones were broken. I iced, wrapped, stayed off it, and kept elevated for 24 hours. Fast forward 2 months and while mine has never gotten as bad as your mom's mine still isn't 100%. Went to GP today and he has ordered an no-contrast MRI. He said the bones in the foot are small and it can be hard to tell what is what using and x-ray. Tell your mom that this is only going to get worse, and even after it finally heals, if it doesn't heal properly it will always hurt--like arthritis. Does she want to end up having to go around in one of the elderly scooters? Can her DH really deal with getting those scooters in and out of a car? Just go to the doctor. Also, could there be an element of dementia here? First the fall, now the pain and complaining but unwillingness to do anything about it? Something definitely doesn't seem right here.[/quote]
