Can you use the walker to the toilet and shower or simply wheelchair?
How are the wounds at Tibias? big marking and obvious?
How are you feeling - any more pains or discomfort?
I can use the walker to toilet or shower chair, but it is easier and more convenient using the wheelchair. I will need a raised toilet seat with handles for a walker. I have videos on walker to toilet or shower chair as well.
Rwad my blog, starting from my surgery date of July 14, for details on scars and pain. In summary, there are more tibia scars than femur scars, but they are small and not so obvious. There are 2 longer scars on the side of my knees, but still better hidden. Pain is still manageable and on the lower side, about 3/10.

Hi HJ
Congratulation for finishing the lengthening soon
BTW, is there another surgery for Tibias at the end of lengthening.
I heard it is called “syndesmosis screw” between fibula and tibia should be removed.
Are you aware of it?
Congrats HJ! Have you found tibias harder or easier than femurs? Any thoughts comparing/contrasting the two lengthenings?
The “syndesmosis screw” between fibula and tibia should be removed in the same surgery to remove the Precice nail from my tibia.
The pain from the tibia surgery was a little more than the femur surgery, but still manageable. After over one one month, the pain was about the same. PT for tibias is definitely easier and less time consuming than femurs. I'll make a future video on lengthening femurs vs tibias.

So the Syndesmosis screw is not removed after lengthening.
It is removed when the Precice nail being removed.
No adjustment is required after lengthening?
