During my pregnancy, I had a nasty trip on the pavement and twisted my ankle terribly. Because our ligaments get so loose from the hormones, the injury was actually much worse than a normal sprain. Like you, I was terrified for the baby and completely lost on what medicine I could safely take. Resting at home helps, but getting a proper clinical check-up gave me so much peace of mind. I went to see my doctor, Dr Alan Cheung, who was absolutely brilliant at managing the injury safely without risking the pregnancy. It is definitely worth having a professional look at it just to be safe!
