Week 1


7 days after surgery I seriously cannot complain about my foot whatsoever. The only time it has bothered me was the morning after surgery. My post op appointment was a week after surgery. He took the dressing off of my foot and said that it looked good and said he was going to go ahead and turn two half turns. I cringed, but like I had read, it doesn't hurt one bit, but I will say at times it's a odd sensation that you feel when it happens. I was instructed to do a half turn of the morning and a half turn at night to reduce pain and a lot of pulling.









5 days of turning and 11 days since surgery and I can already tell that it has grew and I still cannot complain with the pain, I keep it propped up but when I need to get things done I use a rolley chair.  It still does not hurt to turn it,  just an odd feeling at times.  I go back for my 2nd appointment April 4th.


My dressing is a bit messed up,  but here's another picture:
