I had a scarf and akin osteotomy on my left foot on 21 August. Stitches out and healing ok. Has anyone else noticed pain in their leg from wearing the protective shoe? I'm three week in, thought I was over the worst of it and now have an aching left leg! No swelling or anything so pretty sure it's not a clot.
Hi, I had the same on the 19th, I think your pain will be from walking on hour heel. I have pain on the top of my foot which I think is from the same thing.
Other aches and pains seem to come about because we are walking funny. Some of advise I had was even when wearing the boot try and keep a normal gait not a stiff one. Try and keep upright and not stick your bum out when using crutches. And I have also found my lower back is hurting for so much sitting. With leg up. Hope this helps for now.
That's probably from using leg muscles in an unaccustomed way. I've seen this reported on other threads. You should check them out.
