Ankle surg. percocet: You have an ankle injury. You are taking narcotics percocet and ultram. You have pain. In considering ankle surgery ask the doctor about non surgery and surgery options. Get a second opinion. After you have done your homework think about what you want. You want relief and to be free of narcotics. Hope this helps.
