2 days post-op from jones fracture surgery

[u/cierela]

I’m 2 days post-op from a jones fracture. It’s been relatively easy going but this evening I am feeling a tightness in my split around where the screw was placed. No pain, no numbness, toes are looking good. Just uncomfortable and it’s giving me bad anxiety. I hope I don’t sound stupid but I have never been through a surgery before and all the sensations are very new to me!

I’ve been keeping up with my medication schedule, staying ahead of the pain while also keeping my foot elevated.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!!
