I had a subtalor fusion 8 weeks ago. Presently I'm in a walking boot. My surgeon states I can move towards total weight on ankle in two weeks as my ex rays look good. My primary issue has been swelling. As soon as I m not elevating my foot it starts. also I'm experiencing poor circulation in foot and toes feel like their freezing . Not sure if I should be applying ice or heat so I do both. Not sure if these issues are normal so any feedback would be helpful!
