What to Expect After Ankle Ligament Surgery
Immediately after surgery: You may have numbness because of the local or regional anaesthetic used during the procedure.
First few days: Pain and swelling are generally most noticeable once the anaesthetic wears off. Your surgeon may prescribe pain medication to control this.
First 1–2 weeks: Discomfort usually starts improving, although swelling and tenderness can remain, particularly when the foot is lowered.
During rehabilitation: Physiotherapy can sometimes cause mild soreness as movement and strength exercises are introduced, but it should generally be tolerable.
Overall, ankle ligament surgery is not usually described as painless, but the pain is generally temporary and controllable. Recovery often involves more discomfort from swelling and restricted movement than severe pain itself.
