Haglunds Recovery - Week 4 day 5
November 17, 2011 by tinat702
After some scab peeling!
Bring on the SCABS!! I don’t know what I would rather have: Hot, burning, stabbing pains….or the crazy itching sensations that make you want to take a wire brush to the incision site!! I am so happy that my incisions are healing. Here are some before and after of some peeling sessions.
Healing has been slow, but I know I am making progress since I have been able to be up and about a little longer.
The plan is to hopefully get fitted for my walking boot on 12/9. I am hoping the tendon by that time is plenty healed and there is no need for me to stay NWB any longer. I almost feel like I won’t remember how to walk! 
Happy Healing Everyone!
I had surgery for Haglunds October of 2009.
I won’t lie, it’s a longer road than “just” a torn Achilles.
I partially re-tore my Achilles 9 weeks ago and it’s night and day.
Where I was 2 years ago?

On crutches, NWB.
Where am I now today?
Walking, driving and walking without a limp.
Listen to your body, when you get PT follow their rules.
Good luck!
