Ankle, Day of surgery

Hello all. Surgery began at 8:30 a.m. or so and lasted approximately 45 minutes. The findings were good for me. The peroneus brevis tendon injury was less serious than believed; Dr. Mattox estimated the tear at 33-50%. He stitched it back together.

This is good news because a more significant tear would have forced a more invasive reconstructive procedure. I'm not in a cast. I'm instead in a very restrictive split-type thing. I"m not moving, that's for sure.

Pain right now is a 7 on a 1-10 scale. I hope that goes down soon.

That's all for now.
