Sprained ankle

I was cleaning the house for tet
and my body was sore from working out.
and i can't walk straight.
my clumsy self was just walking like normal
but twisted on my feet.
=(
So, My mom and Dad drove around to find
A vietnamese self skilled chiropractor
to fix my ankle.
Turned out two of my veins/tendons/muscles
whatever tissue other than the bone
were displaced and causes bruising and inflammation.
You can see it swelling and stuff.
He rubbed on some this vietnamese remedy medicine
and use a vibrator to massage it.
perhaps to ease the swelling and soften it up
so he can palpate for displaced tissues.
Then, painfully, but endurably, and quickly
he set it back into place.
And amazingly, when he asked me to walk.
I didn't feel the pain there as I did before.
It was so quick when he moved it back into place.
in less than a minute.
Someone needs to be his student and learn his skills.
I'm still healing though. it still hurts,
but it heals faster than it would if I left it alone.
