Is leg pain normal post-bypass surgery with stent?

Having some pain and discomfort in your leg after bypass surgery and having a stent put in is normal. The cause of the leg pain might be your body getting used to the new blood flow and the healing process. The sharp pain on your foot's top may be nerve irritation. It's good you can feel the pulse on your foot, but if the pain gets severe or doesn't improve, it's important to let your orthopedist know. Meanwhile, keep your leg elevated, take any prescribed pain medication, and gently massage your leg to ease the discomfort.

Mornings can be stiff and painful as joints swell. Medications can ease the pain and slow joint damage, but staying active and eating well are just as important in managing this condition.

Can my shortened leg from ankle removal be fixed?

You seem to have dislocated your ankle, which can give your leg a longer impression. Such occurrences are observed when the bones in your ankle are misplaced. To correct this, you should go to an orthopedist who can put the bones back into the right place. A splint or a brace may be used by them to enable your ankle to recover properly. Adhering to their recommendations is critical if you want your leg to be straightened and aligned with your other leg. Rest, elevate your leg, and stay away from putting weight on it until you see a doctor.

Should I Have Surgery for Left Leg Ankle Fracture?

It is possible to have a fracture in your ankle and have severe pain, swelling, bruising, and difficulty moving the affected area. If the fracture is severe or displaced, surgery may be needed to put the bones back in place. But then, a cast or a plaster may be enough to help a stable fracture heal. An evaluation of your injury by an orthopedist will help you know the best course of action.
