Tripped over my dog
I’m 12.5 weeks post surgery for a trimal fracture. I’ve been FWB since 6 weeks. I’m driving and working full time.
However, I have severe osteoarthritis in my right knee and I thought that was somewhat impacting my walking. I was using a cane for walking at work. I’ve been in physical therapy for about a month.
My walking was getting worse and worse especially at work. My foot was swelling no matter what shoe I tried to wear.
Well, today I have been hobbling pretty badly. I came home from work around 12:40 pm to telework the rest of the day. I was changing my clothes in my bedroom and I tripped over my dog and landed on my surgical ankle. It didn’t hurt at all but the weird thing was that I was able to walk more normally. I still am doing my ankle rom exercises but my ankle feels different and I am able to walk around in my bare feet. I am wondering if this accidental trip onto my surgical ankle loosened some scar tissue. I’ve elevated it and iced it and 3 hours later I’m still walking way better than I was at 11:35 am when I left my office. Bodied are both mysterious and weird.
