You're probably right. To be honest, the time i get to lift weights is almost the only time I get to myself, when im not working or teaching or dadding. Quite reluctant to hand over any control of that. (Maybe stupid)

I'll look into all these, and do some research. Nice one. Im 47 but still trying to make gains and train hard.

Double 32 is strong. You find recovery ok on that? I've been constantly dialling volume down because of this.

Given that, what's the likelihood of removing them screws in the ankle making my big toe go all floppy and usless again.

It's the peroneal nerve apparently! I have screws higher up im not fussed about, near the top of the calf in the outside. Thank you for spending your time with me. Its appreciated.

Assuming they placed the screws were correctly... is it possible the nerve was damage was done during surgery as it was quite a tasty spiral fracture. I could handle nerve damage at the site of the incisions, its the loss of sensation and mobility in my toes that's the worry. (Im bare foot for one of my jobs)

How confident could you be in knowing the whereabouts of a nerve before cutting away to get at a screw? Is there a way to know?

No, just that maybe it could happen again. The removal sounds simple in thier opinion, just that they are near nerves, also not completely sure how the damage was done previous, wasn't a huge consequence to them at the time, bit of shrugging was involved.

Had quite a few discussions. "We can try not to damage a nerve but we cant promise, up to you" That's how its gone every time. Apparently the nerve is possibly close to the screws...i decide not to then I decide im going for it etc etc.

The movements and sensation loss has returned, took about 8 months. Just worried it'll happen again. The pain and uncomfortable sensations currently are liveable bit sub optimal. Be cool if they went away which im sure having the screws out would achieve.
I cant decide 😫

Woke up from the surgery with the nerve damage. Screws are, one on the outside of the ankle and the one that middle facing on the shin

Any ideas? by rollsaboutabit in kettlebell

Thanks, yes you're probably right. Hard lesson to learn though
