Answer
Hi there and thank you for writing. I'm sorry to hear that you aren't feeling well. This forum however is for general questions regarding osteopathic medicine. In your case, I believe you need a physician to examine your ankle and figure out if the pain is related to the hardware inserted or a problem with the other joints and structures of the ankle. All of this information would help you and your physician what alternative modalities could be helpful in your recovery. I hope you get a good diagnosis and treatment soon and feel better. Dr. S.
