I like how the illustrator threw in a 5th metatarsal fracture for added effect

Yeah, I was gonna say, are you sure it's just a sprain?

It's not uncommon to wind up with a fracture like that from ankle sprain while running so the added flavor got a chuckle out of me. Something about the forefoot being planted while the hindfoot inverts alongside with the added force of landing kinda makes the 5th metatarsal wrap around the 4th and it's not bendy enough

footnote a steel plate was dropped on this foot prior to rolling the ankle in an unrelated incident that broke the 5th metatarsal in Chapter 7

That illustration is more than just a strain lol

Last time I rolled my ankle I got a Maisonneuve fracture. The surgeon who fixed me up was super pumped about it because these types of fractures apparently don't happen super often.

Didn't even have to scroll all the way down this meme to clench my foot muscles. Mirror neurons have a direct line to my shitty ankles.

Ankles and knees are a complete con. I want my money back evolution.

Been there done that, in a moshpit while Brujeria were blasting Brujerismo. Ahh what a memory.
