It has been three weeks since my achilles bone spur debridement surgery.  The doctor said touch weight bearing with crutches only.  My other leg is pretty bad off from a prior accident years ago so I have to admit that I have been cheating sometimes with full weight on the surgery leg.  I feel good- small dull soreness, sleep well basically, no throbbing, no feeling of infections.  Things feel normal, about how they felt before the surgery.  Are there any indications that I might feel that would indicate bad-?  Could I have torn things up and now the dull sore is the feeling.  Just curious things went bad I should know.

    P.S.- The locations that I feel soreness is where the incision was made, back of my my heel, sometimes the bottom of my foot just below the heel and oddly that round nub of a bone that sticks out on the side of your foot.

    I also have a problem with my 'good' foot...partially torn Achilles. Full tear and repair on right foot. I found my good foot was getting sore taking all the weight so hired a wheelchair. It was awesome!
