Foot and Ankle Surgery Recovery: 4 Weeks Post-Surgery Concerns

[@nehhh8114]

🙌The people in this comment section are going through the same situation (including me)...may we all get well soon! This time too shall pass

[@putriintanjamaludin7081]

Had torn ligament and damaged cartilage removal surgery almost 3 months ago. Wore air cast boot and on wheelchair (full off weight bearing) 2 weeks after surgery for 2 months off. Now off the boots and started strengthening physio. It still flares up and swollen when I do full weight bearing physio. Got myself a foot arch support and good shoes to help my recovery. It helps and still getting used to it. Daily light massages helps a lot with waste muscles and blood circulation. It's been a slow recovery for me and sometimes I do get frustrated especially when you're living alone in a walk up apartment. Need lots of patience and diligence during recovery. I wish speedy recovery to those who are still recovering from surgery.

For me it was a little bit over 8 weeks for me. I remembered first walking and even put a little weight on my left ankle and even using a walker to walk. I took a big step with my left ankle and a small one with my right ankle with using my walker. I wore the boot a little bit longer for support and security for my left ankle. I did weened off the boot during the month of July. I even had PT on that ankle from early May to the end of August. I was pretty good in walking during the month of August. I don’t wear high heels at all. I just wear mostly sneakers for my feet. I still have the scars on my left ankle even a plate and few screws are still on the ankle joint. That was over 10 years ago. I was in a wheelchair,too. I know how to used crutches because that I used them when I was 15 years old when I twisted my left knee in a bad fall back in February 1986. I do have 2 walkers to help me just in case that I hurt my knee or ankle. The last time that I hurt my knee it was over 3 years ago. It took a week to get back to normal. I used this one walker that my mother used to have before she passed away. She only used it for a very short time. It helped me quickly in walking when I hurt my left knee.

@@DrRobertJMooreIII you're a good man! I'm 44, in great shape like yourself, but have been looking at TRT more and more post 40! Here's another question - why, post-ORIF for malleolus fractures, uni, bi, tri), do all surgeons (worldwide) prescribe delayed weight bearing when the published research runs counter to this? Non union, fixation failure, etc are all extremely similar between early (or even immediate) weight bearing and delayed weight bearing. As I'm sure you know, the benefits of being able to continue to weight bear, even minimally, is huge. Happy to send details of the studies. Or take a look at the one currently running at Otago University Orthopaedics in NZ... I've been in correspondence with the CI of the study.

Dude my scar runs from 2 inches above my ankle all the way down to 1 inch above the base of the foot. Its been 3 weeks since surgery and my foot is swollen, purple. The doc that was removing my stitches was sweating bricks cause he couldnt see the string past all the swollen skin. I wish my foot looked like this lady's.

That sounds awful. Any update? My doctor put in staples because he said stitches tend to get swallowed up in the folds of the skin at the back of the ankle, and they're hard to pull out. I hope everything went well for you.
