“Making round trips to the freezer is a hassle” Jesus brother I felt that in my soul haha, I’m only 3 weeks after surgery still using crutches, can’t wait to start PT!
hello i have a question im at day 50 post op surgery of my achilles tendon doctor sayd i can start walking but i cant get neutral position of my ancle my achilles is so so stiff and hard i dont have good stretch ability will this improve in future time so i can reach past neutral pisition to dorseflexion
50 day post op is 7-8 weeks post op, which is still at early stage. I am not at neutral position at that time either. don't worry! follow your doc's protocol and you will reach neutral and walk w/o issues at no time 💪
I also just recently ruptured my Achilles on May 17th and had surgery May 23rd. Two weeks post op right now and fitted in a boot with wedges. Doctor though gave green light for full weight bearing walking with boot. Was it difficult to start walking?
walking with boot is ok for me - I think the boot is designed to be easier to walk with. it was def difficult to walk when I first transitioned to regular shoes. I only start full weight bearing around 7 weeks so you are definitely faster! Keep it up
