Somehow the funniest part is that this isn't anywhere near as painful as a bad period, and the pain doesn't last for days at a time either.

[–] higgsboson@dubvee.org 3 points 8 hours ago

I rolled my foot and it created a compound fracture of that 5th metatarsal... since it still hurts in bad weather 30 years later, 5/7 would not recommend.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 15 hours ago

you're not really going to roll your ankles barefoot though, like there's a reason our feet are wider than they're tall

[–] Exulion@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago

Had a subtallar dislocation almost 2 years ago so that was fun. 0/10 recommend sticking to periods. Proby.

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 88 points 2 days ago (2 children)

If periods are so terrible then why do women keep having them. Checkmate, liberals.

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 34 points 2 days ago (1 children)

If they're not so bad why don't you have one.

C'mon chicken, show me the red. bawk Bawk bawwwwkkk

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 8 points 1 day ago

who says i don't

[–] SanicHegehog@lemm.ee 128 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Also lucky that girls never wear heels, that would make this much worse

[–] LostWon@lemmy.ca 29 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I have seen the aftermath from when someone rolled her foot in platform heels. (I was nearby, but didn't see her foot go perpendicular to her leg like I heard about afterwards.) It was many years ago and I don't think of it often, but I don't recall ever buying any kind of platform shoe ever again after that.

[–] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 day ago

"Should I take my heels off?" "NOooOoo"

Goodness you can hear it snap

[–] GooberEar@lemmy.wtf 24 points 2 days ago (1 children)

They don't have ankles. They don't have testicles. They are missing a bunch of ribs. They don't fart. They don't even have a Y chromosome. At a certain point, it's probably easier to list the things they do have.

[–] tatann@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

They don't poop but they do fart (butterflies)

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 30 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I once rolled my ankle but in the most perfect way in which instead of pain, it was the most pleasurable "bone popping" I've ever had in my life. All those tiny ankle bone just popped like satisfying bubble wrap that you just grabbed and popped a bunch, it was so satisfying I was dazed for like a solid minute or 2.

I have spent 15 years trying to do it again to no success :(

[–] PaupersSerenade@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

I’ve been blessed with an incredibly pop susceptible body. Ankles, toes, wrists, knuckles, neck, back, the odd elbow or knee pop here and there. My neck is so loud that I was watching Dune in IMAX with my boyfriend and he heard it over the subwoofers. It’s very satisfying.

[–] SolarMonkey@slrpnk.net 5 points 1 day ago

Popping my sternum in public is the highlight of existing some days. It’s loud, and alarming.

I learned I could do it a decade back but it takes a super specific position that took me many more years to work out so I could do it on demand. Feels amazing.

My hyper-flexibility is probably to blame for it, but it’s super fun :)

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I can do most things reliably except for the ankles, but I've long since lost my ability to easily do my back and neck

And it'll happen to you to meme

[–] PaupersSerenade@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I used to force my neck, but I stopped doing that a while ago. In my 30s now so we’ll see how long it lasts. I can also pop my lower back by clenching my buttocks ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[–] dditty@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

I'm also a cracker in my 30s and still role the dice with neck cracks, but sometimes I chase the dragon too long and end up hurting myself :/

Not only do I have an increased range of motion, but I (very recently learned) that an old injury is causing spinal stenosis – my spinal canal is narrowing due to bone overgrowth on my vertebrae. (Car accident. I was rear ended.)

About 20 years ago a chiropractor popped my neck by twisting it, and it so freaked him out that he leapt back from the table and did the heebie jeebie dance.
He told me to never let a chiropractor pop my neck by twisting it ever again.
Reasonably certain I could kill myself showing off doing yoga, like in that Dead Like Me episode.

[–] straightjorkin@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago

I'm a girl and I did this bad enough to break my ankle. Yeah it hurt

[–] ludrol@bookwormstory.social 11 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I won/lost gene lotery. I can twist my ankle like that without permanent damage but I can't lift more than 20kg in a squat.

[–] marito@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago

I can also twist my ankles like that painlessly. But I can't touch my toes with my finger tips without bending my knees at all, best I can do is like 10 inches away.

[–] FozzyOsbourne@lemm.ee 1 points 12 hours ago

What even is "rolling your ankle"? I'm standing on one foot like the picture right now and it seems... fine?

[–] Kowowow@lemmy.ca 13 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

To most people good morning, most people, but to everyone who advertises on iheart radio please roll your ankle

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I don't mind the ads as much as I mind the company.

How do you keep making your app worse?

[–] Kowowow@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

I just have an unlimited amount of hate for all the trash podcasts that get advertised during the breaks of btb, it could happen here and hood politics

I have and it has been hurting since February

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

Have you tried drowning your sorrows with a good pilsner?

[–] Twitches@lemm.ee 9 points 2 days ago

If possible go have it looked at. I did this 4 years ago and it still hurts. Please don't be me.

[–] Dreaming_Novaling@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

God I have rolled my ankle a shit ton doing physical activities and simply walking, to the point both feet have rolled several times, and to the point where I needed physical therapy. I am fucked on uneven terrain, and even when walking in my house on kitchen tiled floor I have rolled and tripped.

Physical therapy at least made it so it doesn't hurt anymore when I roll, and I'm not out of commission for the next hour.

I'm not even of legal drinking age, I'll probably die by falling down the stairs at 50 or smth.

[–] AscendantSquid@lemm.ee 4 points 1 day ago

Are you able to wear hi-top sneakers or boots? I used to roll my ankles a lot so I started wearing both and it happens less. When it does happen, it doesn't hurt nearly as much

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I ripped my 5th metatarsal off rolling my ankle like this, my foot is a Picasso painting now.

So that’s cool

[–] xorollo@leminal.space 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Is that a fancy word for toe?!

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Metatarsals are bones in your feet, they’re numbered.

The 5th is the outermost.

Theres a tendon that attaches in that area and when my foot fell off the skateboard while landing a kickflip I pogo sticked on the side of my foot and the tendon and bone had an argument about who was stronger … and I guess I got some strong ass tendons

[–] AoxoMoxoA@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I broke one of the small ones in the middle/ outside of my foot while simply stepping one step off my porch. The Doctor called it the cuboid bone, he asked how I did it . I told him "I stepped off the porch and heard a snap like a twig from my foot". He got pretty upset and said " look man just tell me how it really happened! ". I told him again and he said there is no way thats what happened. He wrote me a perscription for hydrocodon. I took two days off work, drank 40's, mixed the hydros with xanax and M box 30's that I already had and had a nice few days

[–] xorollo@leminal.space 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Did you put it back?! Do you walk? Balance issues?

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I wore a cast for a while. It healed.

2 decades later and I have a slight gait imbalance and the leg it happened to is slightly stronger (I can tell during squats) from accommodating that.

[–] xorollo@leminal.space 2 points 1 day ago

So glad you recovered fully from your internal de-toe-itation event!

[–] toofpic@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Oh, as a kid I was skiing with my dad, and saw the bottom side of a ski, was that good enough?

[–] RobotZap10000@feddit.nl 3 points 2 days ago

I walk like that sometimes...
