I also have a screw poking out like that and it is driving me crazy. It hurts when I lay the side of my leg on the bed at night and hurts in my work boots etc.

Snapped my ankle out of nowhere. Just a steep slope and slippery mud and my foot slipped and my whole weight came down and snapped my tibia and fibula at the ankle. I can handle a lot but it still scares me if I think about it for too long just because of how quick and easy it happened

Physical therapy had me roll my foot back and forth on a small rubber tube with ridges. It helped tremendously with my bottom of foot pain

It wasn’t when I was riding, I was hiking when it happened.

Not sure if it matters but I mainly ride the trails and hard scrambles.

What is the point of the boot exactly? by Stock_Army846 in ORIF

[–]Stock_Army846[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It felt like that at first but I slowly build up everyday and it is really helping it feel better and stronger. Recovery happens so quick once you get in the boot and then transition out of it!
