Chiefs Mahomes Injury Updates Thread - Page 4

Figured it would be more ideal to give this its own thread than the Jaguars gamethread.

Unspoiler to see the first two updates

Spoiler!

UPDATE 3: Courtesy of King - High Ankle Sprain Confirmed

MRI today confirmed that Chiefs’ QB Patrick Mahomes suffered a high ankle sprain during Saturday’s win over the Jaguars, per league source. “Nothing more than that,” said one source, and Mahomes has said he plans to play in next Sunday’s AFC Championship Game.

I like this.

Also, one of the other Chiefsplanet doctors said it takes a minimum of two months to heal. They should all get together and have a convention on this and come up with a final answer.

Types Of Ankle Sprains
The three types of ankle sprains:

Grade 1: Stretched ligaments that will improve with light stretching.
Grade 2: Partially torn ligaments that could require a splint or cast.
Grade 3: Fully torn ligaments that might require surgery. When it happens, you'll feel severe pain.

Recovery Time
"The recovery timetable depends on the extent of the injury," says Dr. Clifford Rios, a Bone & Joint Institute orthopedic surgeon and board-certified in sports medicine. "Nearly all ankle sprains are managed non-surgically. Mild injuries can often be rehabilitated quickly, with players returning to play the following week. More severe ankle sprains, and those involving the end of the tibia and fibula (high ankle sprain), require a much longer period of rest and rehabilitation."

When Does An Ankle Sprain Turn Black And Blue?
Grades 2 and 3 sprains could include tears in small blood vessels. Blood that then leaks into tissues causes the discoloration, even though it might not show for several days. The blood is usually absorbed from the tissue within two weeks.

Low Ankle Sprain vs. High Ankle Sprain
A low ankle sprain affects the ligaments supporting the subtalar joint, just below the true ankle joint -- a set of of three bones, the tibia (inside part of ankle), fibula (lateral, or outside) and the talus (lower). A high ankle sprain affects the ligaments connecting the tibia and fibula, the lower leg's two bones. A high ankle sprain hurts whenever you place rotational force on the ankle.

"Cutting puts more stress laterally, which is where the ankle sprain commonly occurs," says Dr. Rios. "A severe high ankle sprain would not tolerate even straight running for up to 8-12 weeks."

Treatment
A low ankle sprain is usually caused by an inward twisting motion. It's less serious than a high ankle sprain -- most athletes will return anywhere from a few days to a month. Recovery from a high ankle sprain, often caused in football when a player plants a foot on the ground before an extreme outward twist of the foot, can take 4-6 weeks.

Severe high ankle sprains can take up to six months and might require surgery. An X-ray, CT scan or MRI can help determine if you have a high ankle sprain or possible fracture.

A cast, splint or brace and physical therapy could part of the recovery plan, depending on the injury's severity.

If you suffer a mild ankle sprain:

Apply ice hourly during waking hours, 20 minutes at a time, for the first 24 hours after the injury.
After the initial 24-hour period, apply ice for 20 minutes three or four times a day.
Warning: Even though pain medications (ibuprofen) can reduce pain and swelling, do not use them for 24 hours after the injury because it could increase the risk of bleeding.

Patrick may not know it yet, but he may not be able to really move....at all. In a day or two.

Not sure of the extent of the injury, but Patrick Mahomes has nothing on his right foot. No wrap or boot or anything. He’s rocking the same sneakers he came to the stadium in. Also not much of a limp to be honest. We’ll see

I didn't like the fact that they had the Chiefs in the worst time slot of the weekend but now I'm glad they have that extra 24 hrs to work on it.

Why wasn't the game cancelled

It’s the best timeslot for resting bodies on the team and preparing schemes heading to next weekend.

Probably the adrenaline...or he just needs to air it out after being taped up so much.

Chieftain · 01-21-2023, 07:50 PM

Pat is literally seen on video running inside the tunnel at halftime. A serious injury would've required a trainer help him walk it off. Pat will be fine by next weekend.
