What restrictions do I need to observe?
You need to wear protective footwear for walking and standing for the first 3 months. You should avoid excessive walking to no more than 3-6,000 steps a day.
Why do I need to restrict my walking initially?
This is to protect the internal stabilizing sutures before the ligament bridge (syndesmosis) is formed.
Do I need physiotherapy?
It is entirely optional and usually recommended for patients with stiffer big toe joints
When can I drive again?
Usually in one month's time when normal feeling and reaction return to the operating and operated foot which applies of course usually to the right foot.
When can I return to unlimited walking, such as hiking?
About 4 months after surgery.
