Week 10 in, doing own therapy. Walking without boot or brace but swelling and heel pain is rough. Rough 10 weeks so far but I’m getting there

I ruptured mine at the heel and had to have a repair and a reattchment. I did it doing box jumps at crossfit. I have to say it was painful but not overly painful but getting around for the first ten weeks was the hardest part getting up to go to the bathroom was such a hassle. My surgeon used colored casts to show your progression white, pink, blue and black was graduation from the hard cast to the walking cast total 10 weeks hard cast no walking or weight bearing. 4 weeks walking cast along with therapy. I had the therapy in the video expect that scaping thing believe me you do not want anyone messing anywhere near that scar. You want to know pain mess around in that area. My surgery was in May and it's now Decemember and I can do everything I want my heel will hurt after standing for long periods of time but that gets better with time. My incision area will hurt if I accidentally hit that area usually catching it going down stairs. I hope my rant will help you prepare and know what to expect if you need this surgery.

I'm week 5 post op... cant walk without crutches but I can stand without them. Cast off last week and I stretch everyday. Removed first wedge of my boot today. Small progress is better than none.

Please God never let me tear my Achilles

I would have to say this is very conservative looking post op achilles. I am 2.5 months after surgery, had a cast for 2 weeks and boot for 4 weeks. Currently I am able to walk normally for longer walks (7-8kms) and am working on strenghtening my calf. Not being able to walk after 3 months is not very normal.

i did surgery ,i advice all first 2 weeks no weight bearing just relax and wear boot 3week and 4 you should do exercise with boot to make ur upper leg muscles strong ,dont walk by boot without crutches at week5 and 6 ,week 7 take off ur boot and ur leg will be strong cuz u did exercise on it with boot before then start physio with physio u should walk normally without limp in 12 session ,be positive ,if u want to know about exercise send me messages to send u the link

4 weeks post op. Still a long way to go. Started physio and out of cast and into a boot since last week.

Shit that all looks painful but I’m ready to get them out the way I miss the basketball court 😢😩

After watching how the surgery done, I'm here to suffer even more.

A lot of science technology here. i just got busy stretching walking finally lifting.

I am week 10 post op and this is what my ankle looks like... I can barely walk from the bedroom to the bathroom

that just looks like its feels amazing anyway from the massage work being done. maybe that would be helpful in general to loosen up and the help strengthen tendon?

Very good work ❤️🙏👍

part 2 ???

Is it normal that a week after surgery (total rupture), if I lift my leg with the boot, after a few minutes my foot starts to swell because of gravity? No matter how I place my foot, I feel that swelling because of the weight of the boot probably. It’s so annoying

Wat the hell! I never get this kind of treatment lol

Could this be effectice 3 years post surg..

Luego de que tiempo post operación hay que iniciar la rehabilitación xfa

I guess mine wasnt so bad, 5 weeks afrer surgery I can walk on my own with caution but I can do eveything on my own already.

What's the name of the machine, I ruptured my achilles 2 years ago. My tendon is still swollen and I can't run.. information will be really appreciated

I had tendoachilis complete rupture two months back, but treatment delay for 2 months, now surgical repair has been done just 3weeks ago still under cast to be continued for 6weeks.how long will I take stand on my foot. Pl. advise.

That music?! Lol

What is this treatment called?

I swear too God this better than sex when you have this surgery and go too therapy and they messaging your leg n stuff my goodness

Hello Doctor, I had an achille tendon break on my right foot while playing basketball. It's been a month. when I move with the crutches i put my tiptoe injured on ground while paying attention .. Because crutches are old, i am too heavy for moving without putting that foot on the ground and the plaster is damaged because of that, i removed it. So : 1) I would like to know if it will have consequences that i walk putting on the ground tiptoe achille tendon repaired ..? 2) I also would like to know if i will be able to walk correctly as before because I can not bend my foot at 90 degree at this moment..? Thank you Doctor.. !!!

Does anyone here also experienced the case BUT NOT doing the op?

What are you rubbing on his achilles?

Is this after 3 months or 12 weeks. My swelling was down after week 4. I'm in week 8

I don't understand, i ruptured mine a week ago and i have great toe mobility already. What would you say why is that?

" oh nothin ´ - just rubbing some metal directly on a scar in an poorly lit room.
