A new breed of RAM arrives on the FARM

[@colleenkopp56]

It appears it is time for Cameron to take better care of himself, he is not getting any younger! Go soak that foot, wrap it up, lie down, take a pain reliever and get some rest!!❤

Once the average person leaves there 20's, you discover a shocking reduction in ability to recover from injury. Cammy's facing a tough go in spite of being in amazing shape, because his daily work demands so much activity. In many cases a simple break is easier to recover from than repeated sprains. My heart goes out to you man. I joined the Army Reserves at age 36 and every bump bruise and strain took double the time to recover than just 10 years earlier.

[@lindaarmstrongjackman9788]

I hope your ankle heals quickly. Ouch! Thanks Cammy for showing us all the moving parts of your farming and scanning. Can’t wait to see the new scanning trailer. 👍😊👍

[@nataliegraham9552]

Such a busy day and then re-injuring that ankle - I winced when you were talking and in obvious pain but then to see it so swollen at the end - you have my sympathy, I've been there. I have to be careful with my own ankle all the time now, years later. The body does not forgive these injuries as we age. I have a brace for every joint in my medical stash, a complete bin of different compression bandaging, ice wraps for various body parts, etc. Please make sure to think long term as far as supporting that ankle during every day work once it is healed, it will hopefully help keep another bad twist from happening. Hugs to you and Lizzie, and I hope it heals quickly.

[@cavumine]

Do take care of yourself! Multiple sprains bring bad things later, so heal properly (I know this from experience, and as a nurse). Get some compression, too. Higher boots will help to support your ankle, so find some, and wear them regularly.

[@lieslbutlerburke3699]

As a sheep farmer, we think it is all fresh air, family and fun. Todays video reminds us that it is also cold and wet and painful too. Least not forget that you get to do it allover again tomorrow. It is a passion that is in you and drives you on. Hope the ankle heals quickly and here's to a good breeding season with the new Rams😊

[@sharonm3677]

Nice to hear you’re getting a new scanning trailer, you’ve worked many sheep through this one and you’ve earned it. Nice new sheep! Oh Cammy, that ankle! I almost screamed when I saw how bad it was. Hope it heals well for you. Lizzie’s such a sweet lady, she’ll get you back on your feet but you better listen to what she tells you! Lol. Take care and get well. ❤❤

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks Sharon!! She looks after me well!

[@louannekeast8575]

Perhaps once it is doing better with the swelling you should get a brace for it that still allows movement but will prevent you rolling it. They work great.

[@elizabethglew6930]

What a day! Thanks for taking us along! It was fun to watch, and I amazed how many tasks you squeezed in. Nasty injury! Best wishes for rapid and thorough healing!

[@johncullen9177]

Another super video Cammy Sprained my ankle earlier this year turned out it was fractured 😢get that seen too man. Sending healing vibes. Those rams look to have real power hope they go lucky for you.

[@bejaysus7388]

A boy Cammy another good video 👍. Hope the ankle is better. I know exactly how you feel, I've weak ankles I go over on them quiet often. Those rams looked solid!!! Delivered to your door as well, can't argue with that. Didn't see the ewes but I'm sure they're fine, you wouldn't have bought them otherwise. Best of luck with the ankle & the new purchases.

[@tinacathey8241]

Sheep are a lot of work, they look so easy out there in the field eatting grass lol Take care and have a good week.

[@judyphillips7892]

You are an amazing person, farmer, father, friend and inspiration to many! Now you need to use some of that strength and wisdom to take care of yourself, and allow your body to heal. Your family and a whole lot of people out here love you, and will be supportive of you always! There have been lots of suggestions in the comments of ways to support your ankle and protect it while you work. Please listen to the advice so that you aren't dealing with pain longer than necessary. Awesome new rams, by the way. Good news about the new scanning trailer too!❤❤

😮 that sprain! I hope it starts healing right away! When I sprained my ankle really badly, I almost blacked out & threw up! That pain is REAL!

[@westzed23]

Great video that shows how long and busy a farming day can be.

[@catherine_404]

Cold relief on a bruise is 100% a must, apply as soon as you can for as long as you can (8-12 hours, almost constantly). I recently bruised my palm pretty seriously, I couldn't write for the first day. I applied cold for as long as I could, for most of the day. The "cold" were aluminium drink cans (with their drinks), they are extremely convenient for small bruises; I had a can of beer with me at work because the closest shop only sold beers from their fridge 😆 I drank it the next week at home, I was on antibiotics, didn't risk drinking. That bruise wasn't as bad as it could be, that hand recovered in just a few days. The elbow though, which was hurt at the same time (I slipped and fell), which felt less damaged, and didn't hurt as much, still hurts after two weeks! Cold compress is a saviour.

[@TheSheepGame]

On it thanks Catherine! Ice then warm to flush it out... then repeat!

[@catherine_404]

@@TheSheepGame idk about warm, I was just hugging my two cans of beer intermittently (putting the second can on the outer windowsill to cool out), and it helped. Just take care of yourself. Don't overwork the injury, the better you take care of it, the faster you get back to 100% efficient.

[@V.I.C.]

Lol Um yes Cammy it is time for a new scanning trailer!!! That thing is what nightmares are made of!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 It literally looks like something you would see in a horror movie and the killer is dragging that thing behind his crazy looking run down truck like in Jeeper Creepers! Lol That thing needs to go before you show up to someones house and scare some little kids!! Lol On a side note.. Hope your ankle feels better!! Thanks for sharing hun!! 😊😊

[@niamhdalymcgrath]

Ankles are hard to ice effectively. Over many years and 6 boys I’ve found a bucket of cold water with ice in it does the best job. First 3 days you get the most benifit. Do 20 mins a time as often as you can. You may need a boot for comfort and physiotherapy to rebuild the ankle after.

[@melissahicks6071]

Had a severe sprain once and was on crutches for 2 weeks. Also, try wrapping it with an ace bandage for stability. And don't put ice directly on skin, wrap it in a towel then do 20 min on / 20 min off for 1 hr several times a day. Lastly, ibuprofen works best on soft tissue injuries. Get well soon!

[@TheSheepGame]

Thanks Melissa! I'm on it!

[@westzed23]

Very good advice.I too have sprained my ankle a few times. It doesn't get easier to heal.

[@kathybradbury]

Personally, I’d use aspirin, not as hard on the kidneys and liver.

[@westzed23]

@@kathybradbury If the problem is an injury, then the Ibuprofen works better because it helps with inflammation. If you are only on Ibuprofen for a few weeks, then it shouldn't be a problem. You can take Aspirin and Tylenol with it for pain.

[@kathybradbury]

@@westzed23 a lot of people have a toxic reaction to Tylenol and ibuprofen. I personally have. I’ve also heard that around 100,000 people a year die from the use of Ibuprofen a year in the US. That’s why I caution people on the use of it. For myself, my urinary system shuts down from the use of NSAIDS. Aspirin works pretty well though. Aspirin was disparaged when Tylenol was given the green light for OTC sales.

[@patpierce4854]

Ice is your best friend. I’ve gone through 8 different knee surgeries (both are now titanium, chrome cobalt, and milk jug plastic so they don’t hurt anymore, and I can do things I did 30 years ago pain free). Found that ice was far better for pain relief than any meds. Take time to heal! Also - pay attention to how your foot and ankle fits into your footwear. If you have some oversized Wellies, take them with you in the vehicle when you start the day’s work, because you are likely to need the bigger boot later in the day.

[@143topline]

Feeling tired out after watching your long day, hope the new sheep do well and your ankle improves quickly

[@pattiripley7599]

My sprained his ankle so many times in 18 mths it wouldn’t heal- sports. They finally put him off ankle completely and in PT and he healed and has done great for over 20 years. Take care of it and let it heal fully so it can take care of you

[@jellekatsman]

Take care! Hope you’ll be able to recover soon!

I slipped getting off a train and ruptured my ankle lateral ligament. Agony. Surgery to fix and a long recuperation period. Hopefully your sprain heals completely soon. Take care where you walk...

[@TheSheepGame]

Oft!! You have me worried now Jimmy!!

[@jimmyjohnstone5878]

@@TheSheepGame if you could weight bear at all after the initial injury it's unlikely that the ligament is completely ruptured (detached from bone) but it could have a tear. The best option is to have it scanned to get exact detail on what has occurred. Not by you doing the scan ! Otherwise, keep doing the ice and elevation treatment every time you can get a rest. That, plus ibuprofen and paracetamol at max dose will help. Lizzie will give you adequate care...if you behave yourself. Other
