How long does it take to recover from having your ankle scoped?
I was in a car wreck back in January fracturing my ankle in 3 places and tearing some ligaments. I never regained the full range of motion in my ankle and its keeping me from playing sports. So I found out a couple of weeks ago its because I still have some bone fragments in my ankle joint that is keeping me from getting my full motion. Im going the 30th of this month to have my ankle scoped to remove the bone fragments and fix some cartilage lesions. The doc says if everything goes right I will be back to jogging in 2 weeks. My question is if anyone else has had this done before and what was there recovery time. Thanks
I have already had surgery on it once after the wreck to remove some bone and a anchor put in to hold my ligaments in place. He said to stay off it for 1 week and I could start walking on it after that. My main goal since the wreck is to get back to playing basketball.
