Day 5 of recovery and had my first post-op appointment today
Day 5 of recovery and had my first post-op appointment today. Doc said everything looked fine. I was too afraid to look at my incision so I had her keep it covered while I took a pic because I wanted to see the new spacing between my 2nd and big toe. I can already tell my the side of my foot is straight and it makes me happy. Also, out of percocet so I am starting to feel the "pins and needles" that everyone has been talking about. Guess I'll just use the 800mg Ibuprofens for pain.
