Question 1

can i break my ankle without pain????

Accepted Answer

NEUROPATHY: People with diabetic neuropathy evolving into a Charcot ankle may not feel pain. For people with no health issues, I would think pain would be a presenting symptom.

Question 2

in what way can i break my ankle/foot?

Accepted Answer

Numerous Ways.: There are various ways to break the foot and ankle.

Question 3

how can i break my ankle by standing on it with my other foot?

Accepted Answer

Hard to say: You are right in saying that is not a common mechanism and does not seem like enough energy to cause such an injury.  Sometimes the fracture can occur in abnormal bone such as in osteoporosis or a stress fracture, or the "fracture" is not a fracture after all. Don't hesitate to seek second opinion if you are concerned that the diagnosis is not correct.

Question 4

i was wondering how to break my ankle?

Accepted Answer

Wonderful World.: Now you have me wondering, why you're wondering, on what you're wondering. The world is full of so many wonders and they never cease to amaze me.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Question?: I think if you read your question again, you might change the way it is written so a specific helpful answer can be written.

Question 6

i really need to break my ankle now ,how can i?

Accepted Answer

Psych Consult: Do not advise this... please consider the consequences.  If these feelings persist consider a psychiatry consult.

Question 7

i am wondering what exercises i should do after an ankle break?

Accepted Answer

Ankle: It depends on how long the fractured has been healed and the type of activity. Best advise is start slowly and increase slow. Swimming, biking are great to increase rom without damage.

Question 8

how hard would i have to hit my ankle with a hammer to break it?

Accepted Answer

Ankle trauma: Assuming this was an accidental strike  - pretty hard and you are more prone to a "shatter type of fracture due to concentrated forces.   You could have very easily caused a bone bruise which is painful.    
If you are attempting to break an ankle - unfortunately I can not provide that information

Question 9

how can you on purpose break your ankle pleaze tell an honest answer i need attention!?

Accepted Answer

Why?: I'm not quite sure i understand -- are you planning to break your own ankle?  My honest answer is that this is a  really bad idea.  Ankle breaks are no fun, and depending on the injury, can be very complicated to repair and take a long time to heal.  If it's attention you want, i suggest you (at 18?) speak with a trusted adult about your feelings -- and very possibly a therapist as well.

Question 10

i managed to break my ankle in the same place twice in the space of a year, but now (one year on), where i broke it is really bothering me and painful?

Accepted Answer

Revisit ortho: How unfortunate for you!  Your ankle may not have been completely healed yet, making it more prone to re-injury.  Time for a visit to your orthopedist for another set of xrays.  Securing it with an ankle brace or wrap, applying ice packs and taking Advil (ibuprofen) or Motrin would be a good idea for the meantime.
