Just remembered another fell about 20 foot climbing. Landed on my feet a bit shock through my leg but after a few minutes felt ok so carried on climbing. Next morning leg was really stiff so went for an xray told nothing was broken, managed to get a sick note as I worked a building site at the time. Spent the next 3 weeks climbing most days till note ran out, rang work to say I would be back in next week. They said any chance you could milk it a bit and get another sickie as things have gone really quiet.
So off I go to the doctors pretending to limp and ready pretend to be in pain. Doc examined me and twisted my lower leg, I nearly go through the roof in shock and pain.
He says you broke the little bone that supports your calf muscle, they weren’t looking for that when they read your X-ray. You need to take it easy for a few weeks, don’t put much weight on it.
