So my live-in bf sprained his ankle after awkwardly stepping off of a curb two nights ago. His parents took him to the doc's while I was at work. The doc said he had to go to physical therapy and left it at that.
This is the first time he's had a mobility-limiting injury so he's acting like he's dying. I have no idea how long he'll be laid up for until he goes to physical therapy. It's also a "stage 1" sprain, whatever that means. He is calling the physical therapists office today. Until then, I have NO idea what to expect in terms of recovery time, what I need to do as his primary caregiver, etc. Anyone experienced it before?
Thanks in advance. Sorry if I'm sounding whiny, I just feel really guilty that I can't provide him with 24/7 care like his mommy can (which she so helpfully reminded me of last night....)
