Hi people
okay so well over a month ago I had a fall here in UK while out walking the dogs went to hospital told I’d sprained my foot a month later saw a physiotherapist who said my foot is broken was told I’d be having Lisfranc orif absolutely terrified I was , I was awake the whole procedure as I opted to have epidural.
im 3 weeks post op I wouldn’t say pain is that bad having considered being told I must have a high tolerance considering I’d been walking round with a broken foot for a month.
im in a cast and have been for 3 weeks today another 3 week before my cast is removed I’m not sure how many screws or anything as yet
what im wanting to know is is metal removed or not cause they said they may remove it then I read online that it’s not always removed only if it causes uncomfort?
i dreaded the first op :/
