Oh mi! Yu leg bin rol oba wantɛm wantɛm we yu de go dɔŋ di stej ɔ we yu de ple kriket? Yu ankle de at bad bad wan naw? Afta sɔm tɛm, di eria swel, blu, ɛn yu nɔ ebul fɔ ivin put am dɔŋ? Yu go mɔs de wɔnda if dis na jɔs wan sprain, ɔ if bon brok insay (fracture). Infakt, di men tin we kin mek pɔsin in anklɛ pen na we in anklɛ brok. So lɛ wi tɔk bɔt dis, jɔs, simpul wan.
Fɔs, lɛ wi si, wetin na dis anklɛ jɔyn?
Okay, dis na rili simpul tin. Yu anklɛ jɔyn na tri men bon dɛn we kin kam togɛda. I tan lɛk di tri leg dɛn na chia, we de mek dis jɔyn strɔng.
- Tibia: Dis na di big tik bon we de na yu leg we de dɔŋ di ni. Dɛn kin kɔl am bak "shin bon" we wi de tɔk bɔt am.
- Fibula: Dis na di tin we tan lɛk tin we de na do, we de paralel to di big bon.
- Talus: Dis na di smɔl bɔt rili impɔtant bon we de kɔnɛkt yu leg ɛn yu fut. I tan lɛk brij bitwin di tu bon dɛn we de ɔp ɛn di fut.
Dɛn tri bon ya kin kam togɛda fɔ mek yu anklɛ jɔyn. Naw yu ɔndastand, if wan ɔ mɔ pan dɛn bon ya brok, wi kin kɔl am “ ankle fracture .” Sɔntɛnde, dɛn brek ya kin rili smɔl. Bɔt sɔm siriɔs brek dɛn kin nid fɔ ɔpreshɔn. I kin tek ɛnisay frɔm sɔm wiks to wan ia fɔ mek i wɛl ful wan.
Bɔku we dɛn de fɔ brok anklɛ bon!
Ivin if wi se "broken leg," bɔku we dɛn de we i kin apin. Dɔktɔ dɛn kin put dɛn tin ya bay di kayn bon we brok ɛn usay di bon brok. Lɛ wi luk di men kayn dɛn.
Mɛmba se pan ɔl we dɛn nem ya kin tan lɛk se dɛn kɔmplikt smɔl, if yu no dɛn, dat go ɛp yu we yu de tɔk to di dɔktɔ.
