My entire leg was on fire. It was as if someone had slit it open with a knife
One night, while in my recording studio in Tucker, Georgia, my ankle started getting red, itchy and swollen. I love walking and hiking, so I assumed I had hurt it on a recent trek. Three days later, I was hobbling, unable to put pressure on my leg without severe pain. What worried me the most was that the colour had changed. My ankle was no longer red and angry; it was now blue and purple.
The timing couldn’t have been any worse. I’m a musician and had a gig that evening. I kept telling myself I had just knocked my ankle and it was bruising.
