I hope things feel better for you soon. I understand your pain - I've had a couple nasty ankle sprains when in my 20's. Took months to heal up - only to start hurting again every morning once I was in my 40's
Now in my 50's, its just the morning ritual of hobbling around every morning when I get out of bed - and add in a bit of neuropathic pain on top of it for good measure.

Can't wait to see what the 60's and beyond will bring for me
