Grade 2 sprain

I went to the Medical City to pick up my x-ray plates and have my ankle checked as well. I set up an appointment with my orthopedic surgeon. Like what I mentioned previously, no fractured bones but my doctor says that with the amount of bruising and swelling of my ankle, I probably tore all three major ankle ligaments. He only sees a Grade 2 sprain though, which would sideline me for about 3-4 weeks. With proper healing, I can get back sooner though.

I'm trying to determine if I can return by September 22, which is the semifinal round of the IBS Sportsfest. I'm not convinced I'll make it in time, but who knows... I normally recover beyond expectations.
