Nearly four weeks
Bruising gone but still feel very tender. I continue wearing the TED socks as they feel more secure with them on. Swelling not too bad but I do have numb areas around the ankles. Much more shape to them now and Im very happy with the way they are going.
After two weeks
I take the socks of each night to inspect my ankles and then put them back on to sleep. The bruising has faded a lot now. Swelling varies a bit and Im stil trying to minimize the amount of time I spend on my feet but I can see the shape changing and Im confident that in the end they will look good. There was a lot of dry skin on my heals but I have managed to smooth that out now. The teds that were previously too tight behind my knee are now ok so I can only assume my whole legs were previously swollen or else they loosed in the wash. Feel I could do with them a bit tighter at the ankle but not the leg. I have a nurses appointment on Monday so will take more phots then.
After Day Five Checkup
Here are some photos taken when my TEDS were off for the five day checkup.here is a lot of bruising but I did expect that and was prepared for it. There is also a good bit of swelling but to keep it in perspective they are not any bigger than what they were before. The nurse took the paper stitches off and the scars can barely be seen they are so small. They actually look like a freckle or tiny spot so I have tried to show them in the photo in a close up as they are tiny. Mr Quaba looked at them and is very pleased with them and says I will get a good result and I am confident I will as I can now see the lower leg coming in a bit. Im not in pain despite how it looks but they are very tender. Im struggling with the Teds cutting in at the back of my knee and have had to cut them a bit. I was remeasured but as my legs are a bit short they are slightly too long and do not come in a shorter length. I have ordered others but in the meantime am persevering with the teds.

Excellent work from a very skilled surgeon who is very easy to talk to. The fact I have have used him for all my procedures speaks volumes. I would highly recommend him and all his team First Class all the way and will always be my No 1 choice.
