Life achilles surgery... - Page 3

Had achilles surgery two days ago. Real fun time. I recommend everyone do it at least once.

I ignored my pain fr almost 3 years.

The other few here who have had Achilles surgery... How long before you were able to walk with the boot and no crutches?

Did you use Suggs' surgeon? The man works miracles.

I've got a really really sharp knife. It removed a pecan sized skin tag from my inner thigh

(I can't find the thread about it).

so, needless to say, I'm pretty experienced in surgery. PM me.
Oh, and bring whiskey and something to bite on. (No homo)

Try this daily for both feet, chances are the other one is on its way to pain.

Also try a rolling pin back and forth under your arches. I do this once daily and my daughter has to as well. Genetic ?? But it has helped tremendously?

Woo Hoo! Full release from doctor only 6 weeks post surgery!

**Rain Man** · 01-02-2013, 01:02 PM

Are you still walking like a penguin, or did they fix that?
