Not-really-gory photos

[rachelmanija]

Do not click unless you are in the mood for "Wanna see my broken foot?" Cut for photos of bruised foot (and a cat).

The photos don't really do it justice, especially of the top of the foot - there's very dark bruising at the base of my toes that didn't show up well. On the bottom, the bruise is actually darker and extends to the side of the foot. However, you can see how it's swollen so all the wrinkles have vanished. The red marks are from pre-existing blisters, not blood poisoning. ;)

Whereas over here, I'm not sure I've ever seen armpit crutches IRL!

They are such a LITERAL PAIN. And in my case, they were really wrongly sized and I didn't get any tips or training on how best to use them with my injury, either. (The first time I badly sprained my ankle when I was 13 or so by tripping into a hole in a neighbour's backyard, the prescription was also "It's not broken, have some crutches.")
