You are very lucky to have gotten Tramadol.
I had a far worse injury (blew my knee out really bad) and I or nothing at all. Zero.

I'm not comfortable doing a CWE on that amount of pills because of the CWE Doesn't work for some reason it would be a fatal amount of APAP.
I'll do a CWE on T3s but not T1s .
Also, I am one of the unfortunate people for whom codeine is totally ineffective .
It doesn't work for me at all, apparently my liver can't break it down to morphine.

I'm really good with pain but when I tore a ligament in my spine I stood there and yelled FUCK real loud, and then cried a little. They didn't give me shit all except naproxen for it. It was a lot of naproxen though, like a gram every couple hours. I got a real weird high out if it. I could barely walk, just enough to go to the bathroom and lay down again. Even with that I would hold it for as long as possible. I was laid up for 3-4 weeks, and that was just getting back to the walking part. See, for the longest time I was really pissed off they didn't give me anything, then I realized that's just the druggie in me. If I had been given morphine or something like that, I would have had weeks, maybe a month or two, to develop a problem, along with numbing a pain I need to take care of. With the right pain meds, I very well could have made the problem worse. A foot is definitely along the same line. Canadian doctors prescribe opiates for more ongoing issues rather than ER situations. I don't see anything wrong with that.

see theres the disconnect is that in the US you get opiates if you sneeze hard enough in the right ER
this is the worst pain ive ever been in (and that's counting two torn ACLs) and I expect something that's actually gonna help.
I'm sitting here and have taken the tramadol and it has not done jack shit to help anything
I suppose the ER doc is probably holding out on me seeing the ortho surgeon before I get any real heavy duty stuff but she told me today that in her opinion im going to end up needing major surgery on my ankle or risk being crippled
the only reason im pissed off about only being given tramadol to hold me over is that its going to take ages for me to get in to see an ortho because public health insurance in the US is totally fucked

that's absolutely fucked
the only time a doctor in the US would do that is if they knew you had a history with recreational use of drugs
I was having back spasms once (pretty mild, hurt but not debilitating) and I went to a walk in clinic and left with 40 vicodin and 40 soma

OP, sounds like a grade 2 or 3 sprain which includes partial or complete tearing of the ligaments - which one is it? grade 3's are serious bidniz as they will typically never be as strong as they were before.
Ps- just genuinely curious is all. I fucked my ankle up really hard jumping off a fence in late 2011. there was a major pop and i sustained a chip fracture as a result- grade two sprain so partial tearing of the ligaments. A grade 3 is full tear and requires surgery.

I wish you a speedy, painless recovery.
Turmeric extract with black pepper is a powerful anti inflammatory and might help marginally .
I take it for back pain and general health.

This may sound callous but if your doc won't prescribe pain meds ask for a low dose of benzos. Pain is 50% anxiety IME. The only danger is that if you take too much you might forget how injured you are.

I tore a bunch of ligaments and other shit in my knee about 15 or so days ago. Haven't had anything but ibuprofen for it. I know your pain.

Thanks dude ! But actually that was a long time ago, thankfully the knee healed well.
Good idea making the turmeric into a topical paste ! I use it orally but I will try rubbing on my sore parts as well!

You should try some turpentine instead of turmeric, it makes your pee smell great.
