Weeks #11 15 Post -Op Transitioning from Non Weight Bearing to Full Weight Bearing.

After many long weeks of non weight bearing I started PT on week 12. In this video I share the transition from using crutches NBW to walking FWB with the boot. I share the exercises my PT gave me and how to go up and down the stairs. No more crawling up and down!

Such an unfortunate incident...but you show grace and elegance with those crutches.

I’m at the 12 week mark and hopefully about to come out of the boot and start physio therapy. I had sydesmosis ankle dislocation/ligament damage plus spiral fibula fracture. I bought an ‘EvenUp’ and it helps a lot.

Thank you for posting this. I’m on week 6 1/2 after my ankle fracture but with no surgery. I feel motivated after I watched your video.

[@jolenetackman8341]

Yes, you are very inspiring- I could use the info on the shoe you use.

Unfortunate enough in life to now have had a heel fracture and an ankle fracture in my right foot. 😢 I will say the recovery from heel fracture is faster than the recovery from the ankle fracture.

Thank you for the video series. Very helpful and motivating to see the progress. I see you had the sub talor fusion in the same operation, must have been a very bad fracture. May I ask how you are today? I am three weeks into my fracture, open reduction internal fixation operation. 12 screws and a plate, but no joint fusion.

Broke both heels June 19. 2024 doctors didn’t operate until July 15 I am one week in lots of pain but am getting by better every day I get around with knee pads and go up and down stairs like a dog even drove two weeks before my surgery I’m very active farmer wondering how your heel has recovered
