    I had some joint fusion pins taken out my foot a week ago today. Doc reckoned riding in a week would be fine. Problem is that foot is too swollen to get my boots on…. any idea how long swelling takes to go down ? yes, I am seeing surgeon again on thu for check etc and can ask him then, just wondering and being impatient !!

    well if foot still swollen I'd hang fire – don't risk it in other words!!

    It'll be worth the wait in the end – you don't want to rush it and end up being pinned again.

    slowly slowly and all that 😉

    good luck

    How long is a piece of string?

    Sit with your foot up
