big toe tendon reattachment surgical procedure
hi, i cut my extensor hallicus tendon by dropping a blender blade 2 months in the past. i had surgery around 2 weeks later and so they said it went well (the tendon ended up completely and easily severed) and i was in a cast as well as on crutches until dec 22, then had a posterior splint for another 2 weeks, even now no weight bearing.
in any case, a couple of days ago my partner and i walked for the first time with no crutches but in a 'walking shoe' on my small left foot to protect the toe. that felt fine but i think i may have got overdone it last week walking around (always in the particular walking shoe) as well as my foot is genuinely hurtingsharp, shooting pains in the incision. i am just just really apprehensive that the tendon could have been ruptured again and also am wondering when there is a way to tell? your toe hasn't wilted once more i don't think, also it can't move nonetheless it couldn't really move before this weekend anyway, since it's so fragile.
i have been going to a educating hospital full of over-worked doctors (wait Two 1/2 hrs each time for the 15 mn consultation,parajumpers long bear, mostly with a college student) and they didn't propose any exercises or even ways to take care of my own foot, just mentioned i could switch to shoes or boots when i want and are available back in a month.
can there be anything i should look out for to make sure my foot is healing properly (happen to be trying to get back to huge selection of motion, and am massaging scar tissue), similar to maybe not walking excessive, or using the crutches for one more couple days? how can i tell if the plantar fascia has ruptured once more?
thank you!!
HI there
The particular tendon probably hasn't already ruptured (you'd discover some swelling and experience pain upon manual flexion of the toe at least, if not soreness as well). It may well end up being irritated, though, due to a little overwork. It's not a great deal that exercise isn't good for it, but since it has been immobilized and vulnerable by this, the muscle tissue, tendons, etc., will tend to be more prone to strain as well as soreness. Some concentration on trying to move the foot might help you tell if you have any sort of damage (it will be unusual) to the restore, because with focus you have to be able to at least glance at the pull, if not actualy proceed it at this point. Obviously physical therapy (PT) would be helpful, but if you are constrained to be seen with a busy teaching clinic you may not get that much. I'd definitely tips to negotiate in pursuing Rehabilitation, however, as the extended the foot generally speaking is underused,parajumpers udsalg, the more hard it is to get things working again. Any PT specialist is likewise able to tell if there's anything not quite right happening. It's a help, without a doubt.
