I had a setback a few days ago and my foot has been extremely painful when walking. I rested it for 3 full days and then had physical therapy yesterday. My therapist took it easy on me not wanting the muscles to get irritated again. After walking today doing normal activities, it is once again very sore. I think this picture shows how swollen the top of my right foot is compared to my left

My scar is still noticeable, but now I am more concerned about walking pain free. My goal is to walk without a cane and sneakers!

This picture shows what happens when I push myself too hard. The bump (swelling) on the top of my foot is at my incision sight and causes pain when I walk. I am trying not to wonder if I am always going to have pain when walking and swelling when I rest. I am back to icing tonight!

Insurance finally approved the MRI, its scheduled for monday.
ReplyDeleteI will be interested to hear the results of your MRI. Glad insurance finally came through for you!
Deletemy mri showed peroneus brevis tenonitis, achillles tendonitis, posterior tibial tenonitis, and an anterior talofibular ligament sprain. and some swelling across the top of my foot, but nothing to the lis franc ligament
DeleteI am so happy for you and glad you will not have to have lis franc surgery!!!!!!! What will you be doing instead, to deal with your foot pain?
Deletewell for now its try anti inflammatory meds, with all the tendonitis i have, none of that hurts, just the top of my foot where the mri didnt show anything abnormal.
DeleteHopefully the anti inflammatory meds will take care of your problem! Take care!
