Is it risky to play squash after broken ankle. Is squash good cardio excersise!?!
Question: I broke my ankle just over a year ago (nearly 14 months) and i still get pains there! i wonder is there a weakness still even tho the doctors say its healed. I had 1 physio session. I also snapped a tendon or ligament cant remember which. My achilles heal hurts sometimes, just aches. Ive put on almost 50lbs since breaking my leg and am fatter than ever, I weigh over 280lbs now(i am 6'4). I want to start playing squash to burn off some excess flab. I did play before and was good. If i buy and wear an ankle support thing(to wear the first few weeks to hopefully strengthen it up), im not likely to break it again am i?

the doctor knows best, if he says you are fine then go ahead, if you are still concerned maybe go to the physio Again to get him to check it out! Good luck
