Surgery

Posted by Hans on 1/21/99
I have been seeing a DPM for heel spur for several months. The spur is at the back of the heel cutting into the archilies (sp) tendon. I have been given 2 shots of cortizone to control the pain, but no surgery was planned until this week when the archilies tendon ruptured.

I have conventional surgery scheduled for tomorrow to remove the spur and repair the tendon.

I'm a bit aprehensive about the surgery, and wanted to know if anyone has any experience or advice in this area.
