ankle joint

Hi bighair

There a few a few of us on the forum who have had either ankle fusion or replacement.

I had ankle replacement surgery June last year after suffering a very painful ankle due to RA and OA.The stay in hospital was brief,in one day and home the following evening.Was in plaster for about 8 weeks and in a brace for a further 2 weeks.After this was able to fully weight bear,though for some months did use a stick when walking any distance more for stability than for support.
The operation has improved my mobility dramatically.

I have made a number of postings on the forum regarding my experiences.

Are you facing the prospect of surgery?Please feel free to ask any questions.

Regards
Ron
