Triple joint ankle fusion, how long does it take to feel normal?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Triple arthrosesis: The triple arthrosesis is a procedure that is complex and requires a fairly lengthy healing period. Even after weight bearing has resumed residual swelling and occasional discomfort may take a year to 18 months to resolve.

Maybe never: This is a major fusion of the foot where mobility is sacrificed to relieve pain. The continued stiffness may not allow it to feel normal.
