Got mine checked out and all is well with the metal, thank the Lord. Especially after that one bad fall where I was scared that I'd really screwed it up.
Same here , Titanium it is. They did give me the option to take them out if I wanted after I healed up or leave them in , needless to say I left them in. Figured if they don't hurt or bother me why go through that. Besides it increases my scrap value when I kick the bucket.
After I healed from my bunion surgery, I found that the screw they used in my toe joint protruded a bit and it hurt when I bumped it. Transmitted the cold as well. I had it taken out and it has been much better since then.
Been laid up a couple of times in my life. Always good to get back after the firewood. Good health in the future. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
The very short version of the long back story is, I was born with feet/ankles that are prone to rolling over. After 50+ yrs of many, many ankle sprains I'm getting bad arthritis. In July, Ortho surgeon "did some serious carpentry" to get my foot into a better alignment and the rebuilt some of the ligaments on the outside of my ankle. I was 6 weeks "no weight bearing" and 6 more weeks in a CAM boot. It has actually healed up really well an my ankle pain is way better now than before the operation. Hope to get a couple years out of this operation before I need an ankle joint replacement.
