Pic posted!
Well plaster was off today and all 5 keyhole incisions look okay. Immense pain under two though.
Have a bit more mobility in the joint but no propper physio for 8-12 weeks. (Just hydro pool) With the pictured "Air Boot" on home page for 3months.
When pushed the consultant said with the previous breaks we have to wait it out go slow and as for a final date how long is a piece of string.
Only been 2 years since it broke this time..........Cannot wait to get back to work!!!

How long you got?
1st broke it aged about 13 playing basketball, then football. Jumping over a fence, ahhh foot got caught in a rabbit hole running with the flag playing paintball. ( Obviously a few yrs between these). Then a bike accident (not my fault), Awkard fall again. Think there was one more then this one 2 yrs back.
Well thats the left ankle, want the rest??????????
Apparantly x-rays were no good then a CT scan finally a MRI came to this even the cutting of the tendons and lengthening.
If this does not work, well when a bit older the cold will be fun!
