hi my name is Brian Hatfield i live in Scotland UK
I have just seen this site i broke my heel about two years ago and i have just had a op to hav my heel fused about three weeks ago.
After the op i never had one bit of pain for about a week and was getting worried about it as the doc had told me that i would have severe pain in my foot after the op after the op they put me on a walking cast straight away and crutches. I got a new cast on about ten days ago since then i have had pain and now is quite severe pain at the bottom of my heel and it feels as if a screw is coming out of my skin and i can not put any pressure on it in any way. Question - Can these screws make there way out of your skin I have done some research on the op and it says that you should not put any pressure at all on your heel for four weeks is this true i asked the doc about this and he said people work different ways i live in Scotland and i do not know if this op is the same as every where else i am getting worried about this but my doc says there is nothing to worry about
