I could not find anything mentioned about this from you.
If you had no internal nails, you would have to wait for a long time for the the removal because of safety

I speak about it in the first post. My internal bone cavity is too small for a nail. The doctor has manufactured an special mail for me which will be inserted in during the exfix removal surgery.
good luck
I'm at 4.6cm. The pain has definitely increased. I feel that it's harder to pick myself up because my leg muscles are so weak. Also, my body mechanics have changed, making it harder to balance myself. I feel like I'm walking on stilts.
I haven't had any infections or any nerve pain as of yet. I also don't have ballerina foot.
Can't wait to get these fixators off of me.
Keep going with 6 cm it’s will take only 14-15 days more it’s worth it.
4-5 cm not that much different, u already made your choice to do the surgery, keep going with 6 cm
I'm at 5cm now. I'm stopping now and don't want to go to 6. No ballerina foot. No infections, no nerve pain.
I have pain in my ankles and along a tendon on the back of my right knee. I'm also very weak in my muscles and get exhausted even taking 50 steps. Now to get this fixator removed and the nail inserted.

awesome decision bro
How are you?
I got the external fixator removed. It was the most painful experience of my entire life and trumps the first surgery. It was 10/10 pain for atleast 11 hours. I was curled up in a fetal position and begging for help and pain medicine from the nurses every hour. The nurses were extremely sweet to me and they were concerned but none of the pain medication they give me helped me at all. Just an uncontrollable stiffness and throbbing pain 10/10 in my shins and ankles that refused to subside. I fell asleep for like 3 hours woke up and feel much better. My pain is 6/10 now
It was like someone taking a screwdriver and jamming it into your shins every second

I think its because they insert the nail as well. Which could make more pain as you are doing LATN
