In 1990 I had a car accident and I ended up with 2 nails in my ankle.
Last week I noticed a bump in my ankle and went to the doctor. She said that the nails are clearly moving and till I see a specialist I have to stop doing any kind of sport (so no more Aikido and Tai Chi for a while). I got the feeling that I will have to have surgery to take them out and after that some rehab period.
What really sucks is that in this period I was getting "closer" to Aikido as in understanding some principles.
Is there someone here who can suggest any kind of home excercise that won't include any kind of stepping? All the excercises I know include foot movements, but I want to avoid the bending the knee part (since it bends alot the ankle) and the regular Aikido stepping (too much stress on the ankle).
Thank you for your help.
