Suggest Treatment For Severe Burning Pain In Foot
I have had a triple ankle fusion operation last monday. I am now in a cast and am at home. When ever I put my foot down from its elevated position, I get a severe burning pain in my foot in less than 30 seconds. It feels like my foot is going to explode inside the cast and I get sharp pains around the sides where the stitching is. It also feels like the cast is too tight. 26, Male, 5ft 10, 17 stone
