i fell 10 days post op my scooter slipped on my foot on crashing down toes first. Went to postop visit and x-ray showed my pin was crooked so now my whole foot is black and blue doctor said my foot is too bruised up to take me back into surgery right now and he’s worried if he does another surgery immediately it’ll be a problem with healing we had to remove pen because it was crooked and I go back into weeks to determine what the next step will be. i cant believe this happened
