One of the biggest problems I'm facing is stiffness. In the two and a half weeks I've been in the external fixator, I've already noticed my toes are turning into wooden posts.I got permission to do physical therapy on my toes while I'm hooked up to this contraption. I used one of my stretching strips to rig up something to stretch my great toe. My goal is to prevent walking like a pirate, as cool as it sounds.
No seriously. This could be a new top hit, "Walk like a pirate". You should really consider it.
ReplyDeleteHey man I shattered my ankle april 14th riding in Vail. I had 2 surgeries, an Ex-Fix installed as well as a plate and 10 screws. I thought my break was the worst ever but apparently you got me beat. I was just wondering what your recovery time has been like. its been almost 5 months for me total and 3 months or so since I got the ex-fix out. I still can't bend my ankle past 90 degrees and my toes wont fully out stretch. im kinda getting concerned im goona be a 26 year old pirate myself. I've been doing the PT and all but I just cant get this damn thing to allow my foot to bend up (it goes down and side to side fairly well, although not as well as before). so my question to you is how long did it take yours to start bending naturally? and how was your overall recovery/how functional is your ankle compared to how it used to be. Please answer and be honest even if it only took your ankle a couple weeks or something. Im kinda freaking out. thanks alot man any info you could give me would be much appreciated... and yes I plan to shred again also, even if it has to be at half speed and with weak style.
