It depends on what type procedure that is being performed. Procedures that require less surgery healed quicker than more complicated procedures. I would check with your doctor doing the surgery give you a better estimate. Thank you and good luck. Jonathan M. Kletz, DPM Texas Foot WorksDallas, Athens and Gun Barrel City Texas214-340-8885
That depends on what surgery you have done and what is being repaired. Speak to your surgeon who know best about his postoperative course of treatment.
This will depend on a number of factors such as your age, baseline activity level, and post-op care. I'd recommend starting physical therapy if you haven't already.

This will depend on the extent of the surgery and what procedure(s) were performed. I recommend you discuss with your surgeon your particular case.
