At least this happened during the Winter months. But believe me when I say getting older REALLY sucks. Broke my foot awhile back. Doc said I would have to wear this boot contraption for about 8 weeks.
Yah right, let's talk...14 weeks was more like it.
Doc said you're not a kid anymore and it just takes longer. I spent the entire Summer in the thing. Broke it in April and got it off in August.
When you are laid up that long, it's kind of hard to milk the care giver. Two weeks and the nerves were wearing.
Listen to what the doc tells you...don't push the recovery. Keeping the leg elavated will keep the swelinng, inflamation and pain down.
And keep your chin up....golf is just around the corner.
