A member asked:
Partial weight bearing for few weeks on ankle that had arthroscopic debridement & modified brostrom. now full weight, very painful. normal? how long?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Call your surgeon.: The fact that you have asked this twice here suggests that you really should call your doctor. It's part of their job. ( You may need to back off on your weight bearing either by using your crutches to increase weight bearing more slowly or resting more frequently during the day. )
