hello all, I'm only 4 weeks post op (2 plates and 12 screws) so I'm not expecting any miracles at the moment. Doctors have told me it'll be 3-4 months before i can do any weight bearing at all so I'm learning a whole new level of patience.

I have some concern with the amount on numbness i feel across the top of my foot and the last 3 toes. I'm not able to bend those toes at all. doesn't seem to matter if I've had my foot elevated or not. should i be concerned or this to be expected?
