:'( :'( I have recently had surgery for a lisfranc injury OLIF, it seemed to healing quite well and i was quite suprized that i was able to put weight on it with no pain. (not deliberate) Unfortunatly on sat night the pain in my foot became unbearable and i went to casualty on monday morn. the doc said it looks like an infection and prescribed antibiotics for it which i started taking immediatly, its tes night now and the pains as bad as ever, how long will it take before the antibiotics kick in and the pain subsides. (ciproflaxacin). also i would like to know if infection is common after this type of surgery as my foot was well enclosed in plaster and i dont know how it happened. any info would help. ?
did it look infected thats they only things that worry me my toes are wrinkled with little red blood veins it looks like was it any other signs than pain
