Accessory navilcular removal surgery with posterier tibial tendon repair
I am 1 week post surgery to have the accesory navilclar bone removed and the posterior tibial tendon reattached and repaired. How long is the recovery process? I have been told I need to spend another week in bed in a NWB splint. I go into a NWB cast next week, for 6-8 weeks then a walking cast after that.
Has anyone had this surgery? If so, does this look like the amount of time before I cannot get moving around? I am already going a bit crazy and house bound!
