As I have mentioned elsewhere, I recently had a very successful tar. I credit part of the success to the physical therapy I had BOTH BEFORE AND AFTER the procedure. Has anybody else had a similar experience?

Hi
I am 12 weeks post surgery with TAR
previous to this i had a sub tailor fusion 12 months ago
with the fusion i was in hospital for 5 days and the pain was horrendous
and i really struggled with walking for 12 months
prior to the TAR they took out the screws of the fusion
i was in hospital 1 night out the next day the only pain relief i needed
was Paracetamol i was fully weight bearing after 6 weeks my only issue is at present
is the tingling of pins and needles but my surgeon said they will go in time
i am now back at the gym mainly doing core but find that the cross trainer is good
as it menouvers my ankle
this TAR has definitely took away a lot of pain and i have more movement in my foot
good luck
Lee
