Day 4 post operative reconstructive ankle surgery

All is to be revealed. The ooze has set like a plaster cast, when removed the outside of the ankle shows staples hiding the tendon diversion and the upper staples and punctures show incisions necessary to lengthen Achilles' tendon .
The inside shot shows one of the ooze points, and the incision for the bone fusion of the 4 foot bones. Quite a bit of swelling and bruising evident. We just have to sit and wait for all that to settle before the intensive physiotherapy can commence. Pain is being well managed. Get some new wheels tomorrow.
