I am slated to have a calcaneal fracture repair. What are the long term effects of this? What can I do to make sure that I heal the best that I can?

With the proper care, a recent study suggests that you can expect decent outcomes six months following the repair. The biggest factor affecting a positive outcome is the amount of ankle motion that you regain. Be sure to follow through with rehabilitation to ensure that you regain all of your ankle motion.
