Awesome news! Sounds like you`re making great progress.

[Poorboy]

as good as it sounds, my foot, ankle and leg were the size of a football and even after icing I had to go back to the boot for the rest of the day.

today I try some compression socks to see if that can keep me in my sneakers

[GearHead_1]

Man, sorry to hear that. I had to do the compression sock for a while after the knee was replaced. Do they worry about blood clots associated with your swelling? Socks can help reduce the risk here also. My experience is that they do help reduce pain. You have to put them on either after icing down or when you first get up in the morning. As you are no doubt aware, once you`ve been on it swelling starts and makes it all but impossible to get the sock on.
