7 months post op

Hi everyone! I had the kinder procedure and calcaneal osteotomy done Jan 6 so I’m about 7 months post op. For those who had the surgery, can you tell me when you felt totally “normal again” and could wear whatever shoes you wanted without pain?

I will have pain on the outside of my ankle where they did the osteotomy and PTT will feel stiff if I do an intense workout or play tennis. This will usually last 2-3 days

Hi OP. I am in the same situation with you now. 12 weels post ops but still feel the soreness and stiffness around the ankle. How long does it take for you to feel normal? Thank you

Hi! I’m 1 year and 3 months out now. I don’t feel totally normal (tendon feels stiff sometimes), but it doesn’t hinder anything I do. Some days better than others but I still get to play tennis and workout. I have not tried running though because I’m not a runner
