    Congratulations! I'm just about 6 weeks out from trimalleolar surgery and I only wear my boot when I'm moving around inside/outside. I will start PWB next week after another X-ray. I still have the majority of my steri strips on both of my incisions, but I've been using Egyptian Magic Cream on the small parts that are uncovered. I get it at Costco. It's only got 6 ingredients in it and it's all natural. My doctor suggested Vitamin E capsules but it's too sticky for me.
