I am four months post-op from my complete Achilles' tendon tear surgery. I have been experiencing severe muscle spasms and cramps. Has anyone else experienced this?

    Seen podiatrist today, he said it's something that normally happens after surgery but not this far out. Said something about it being delayed reaction. Gave me muscle relaxers and have to start PT again. Follow up in a month. Thanks for everyones input!

      I am also feeling cramps or spasms in my foot and ankle. I had surgery back in June. I am still on crutches due to not being able to walk due to this. Please keep me updated.

    I have had bad cramps as well. I asked my surgeon and he really didn't havean explanation. Said cramps can come from so many reasons. My surgery has been almost 2-years now.

      I'm just curious where is your cramps and are you able to walk? I got 2 screws attached to my bone and am wondering if that's what's causing my pain. I think my cramps are from wearing that heavy boot.
