Hi,

Just saw this post-op diary, and it sounds like I recently had a surgery similar to yours, though not quite as extensive. I'm really impressed with the way that you progressed through everything, and even went on to have the second surgery! I hope all is well.

I have a quick question if you happen upon this comment. Did you have a lot of swelling in your ankle post-surgery? If so, what did you do to get rid of it?

Thanks,
lk

Hi Flyinglion!

Thanks so much for your reply! I hadn't heard from anyone else who experienced a similar problem. I definitely started doing ankle pumps, but I don't know why it never occurred to me to ice my ankle. I still have some swelling down there, so I'll use some ice. I just hit 4 weeks today, so it will hopefully keep getting better. Thanks again!

Cheers,
lk
