Surgery to that leg 8 years prior...surgery caused drop toe and nerve damage.
Had a lot of pain through out the years....like everyone else here; one day the nerve pain was  in the calf...tried to walk it off and snap...I went down with a clean break.
The bone has healed; but the CRPS is worse; foot turns blue. Edema.
Was just wondering if anyone else has had a break...no pun intended.  |
Hi Enna,
How recent was the break? I have been told by Ortho that bones can take up to 18 months to fully do their thing after a break. And lot of remodeling occurs after it is "healed", during which time there can still be some swelling and discomfort. That's tough in a weight-bearing bone! Lower extremities are fussy even for people without CRPS. Elevation and very light compression if you can tolerate it might help. I know the blue foot well...
Hang in there, Littlepaw
