Ankle Surgery Revocery

  I am currently 9 weeks post-op and still revocering.  I had no idea that it would take this long (actually longer) to recover from this injury and surgery.  After 6.5 weeks of physical therapy (3 days/week), I can walk on a flat surface, balance on one leg and go up stairs.  Going down stairs is a whole different ball game.  My achellies is still so tight that I can't flex my ankle to 0 degrees.  That is something I work on every day.
  It seems that lately my ankle and foot have been hurting when I haven't done anything unusual.  I'm hoping that this is temporary, and that once this pain passes, my range on motion will improve.  I have 5 more physical therapy visits, on this session.  I suspect that I will be continueing after this session is over.
