Saw the surgeon today for check up. X-rays are all good and I have been signed off with a referral to the physio. Told to start weight bearing straight away and to build up gradually. Suggested stiff soled shoes trainers or my ugg boots will be fine. Have walked a little this evening which f eels very strange, no pain but calves and feet just feel a little achy 😃
Hi yes I had achy calves and feet when I first started walking again. In fact my feet still ach sometimes when I walk too much. I had my op done Sept 16. Good Luck
Thanks Carol, I think I need to remember to take baby steps and not do too much to early 😄
I think that is the problem because it is "only feet" as we say not a broken leg hip etc we think it should heal quicker, but our feet take a lot bashing and weight etc. hope you start to see improvement and rest still when you can. Which is easy said than done. Over Xmas I saw a young girl on crutches who had had 8 toes straightened all at the same time. How brave I thought she was. Xx
