? foot pain?
Posted , 5 users are following.
Just three weeks post op and doing really well...however yesterday I had quite severe aching in foot on operated side. foot has been swollen but this has resolved...it was more like a sever ache than pain if that makes sens? nothing to see but foot does feel tender to touch in places...just a thought ? is the foot in some kind of support/restraint during operation?

My foot and leg on op side was very swollen for a number of weeks and like you I experienced severe foot pain at three weeks. I sat with my feet up as much as possible, used ice packs and did foot pumps. It resolved fully but took a week and was followed by bruising which took a little longer to go.
Legs and feet go through lots of pulling during the op (there is a you tube video if your interested) but dont worry it will get better.
Best wishes, Dot.

awful feeling isn't it. .... my feet are so "present " and I can not hold
them !!!
it could be that you are walking more and perhaps differently ...too tense. .cramped toes ? are you wearing something new ... different shoes?
when it gets worse or won't go away, call your gp..
sounds like you are doing great otherwise. ...
Big warm hug
