12th Day Doctor’s Visit

I went to the doctor this morning 12 days post-op and gotten the stitches removed. Ouch! God did it hurt! I am now back in the CAM boot with toes pointed downward at 20 degrees still in NWB status. I was told to come back in another week when the doctor who did the surgery will be there and then get some more instructions. I was told to keep the boot on at all times and to flex and massage the calf to prevent blood clots. The incision looked real good I must say and I am amazed at how much atrophy my foot went through. Hopefully, I will be able to put some weight on this by Christmas Day which will be exactly 4 weeks post-op. My foot can finally breathe! Yiipeee!!!
