My oldest dd has an Ankle Injury, her gp has said that it is soft tissue damage (ligament) and that dd has to be careful for a week or 2 - no sudden twisting but is ok to do things in a straight line, told the gp that dd is a gymnast and asked if she can still do gym and was told she could as there are other things she can do in the gym and that she can do floor ( his best friend is a physio for the Olympics so he was able to get info from him), she was told no tennis and sports is ok at school as long as no twisting and turning until healed, had a chat with dd's PE teacher and he has excluded her from PE for a week at least as he said dd was not the type to do things by halves and would probably overdo things.
Dd has no strapping on her foot as it wouldn't help, she has to wear a sock in bed to put pressure on it.
Dd will go to gym but I will let her coaches know what the GP said. Dd didn't hurt her foot at gym, it happened at school, she must have rolled it.
Has anyone else had ligament damage and carried on going to gym? Dd did gym last night before her appointment today without any issues.
