Why so much pain and swellen after a year surgery on the ankle ?what should i do?

Another Opinion.: Begin by asking just what the ankle surgery, a year ago, was supposed to accomplish. Then ask yourself if that was done. Now ask yourself if what your left with now is any better, or worse, that what you started with. The concern now is whether or not you are treating the initial pre-surgery condition, or a entirely new problem. You should seek the opinion of an experienced ankle specialist.

You should: Return to the surgeon and ask him what you just asked us. Perhaps there is a problem, or perhaps you need to wear an elastic anklet....
