Hi Jimmer,
Robyn and I are recovering from ankle replacement just one day apart last week. I have stables, having seen them when the doctor removed the soft wrap in the hospital and applied a very hard cast. My pain varies up to a 2 sometimes a 3 , but I am off prescription pain meds and just using Tylenol. I have been running a very low grade fever, about a half a degree above my norm. I wiggle my toes every so often, but it doesn’t cause pain. Maybe you wiggle too hard? Next Tuesday I hope to get the staples out after they remove the hard cast.
Good luck to you and welcome to this forum. It’s comforting to read others posts as we all progress through this adventure.
