Hey guys,
Hope u all doin really well. I'm a monorail LON patient and went through the surgery on 10'th of July in Istanbul and now I'm about 3.8 millimeters taller as I do 1 millimeters a day from the 6'th day of the surgery.
I started walking with the walker the next day after the surgery and started walking without any help (crutches etc.) on the fourth day of surgery. Since then I was walking without aid and it was quite comfortable.
Then when I've reached 3 centimeters and the exact day I've started to go to a physiotherapy center. After that it began. I have no pain when I'm lying or sitting but when I start to walk whenever I give my weight to the front of my left the front of the left leg hurts really much and since then I can't walk.
I can't find the hurting area even though I tried pushing every point on my leg to see where it hurts. I think it comes from the inside.
Do you have any idea what causes this pain or how to stop it ?
Did anyone had a similar occasion ?
Thanks a lot.
Hi jexus,
Pain in the feet during the lengthening phase is not uncommon, but it can have one or more of many reasons.
Could be a nerve damage, could come from the tendons, could be an infection, could be a craze inside the bone, maybe your foot was still numb from the surgery and now it is healing and so on.
You really should go to a doctor and have it checked. The sooner, the better.
Good luck

Do you know which leg part is he lengthening?
Guys thank you for your answers.
I'm lengthening my tibias. Btw the pain is on the front side of my left leg when I try to walk. It doesnt hurt when I just stand up but hurts as I take steps.

Darn, no, somehow I was thinking that he'd written tibia.
The Mandela Effect is here 
Monorails are not fully weight bearable and after a few cms they become really unstable and don't support efficiently the bone.
You should NOT walk with monorails especially since you have a 3 cm bone gap.
So till the end of lengthening and the locking of internal nail stop walking. I had LL with monorails and I know what I am talking about.

Out of curiosity, what monorails did you have? Pitkar, Orthofix or from any other company?
I'm asking, because my monorails from Pitkar were fully weight-bearing at ~60kg body weight.
Guys thanks again
I've got something on which says "TASARIMMED". I guess it is a Turkish company.
The same as the other Muharrem Inan tibia patents' here.

Orthofix. I was 80kg when I did my surgery but I doubt if they coud fully bear 60kg. I think that yours couldn't bear so much weight too. If you lengthened more than 3-3.5 cm you could see that you wouldn't walk without pain and after less than 1 cm more you wouldn't walk at all.
At about 2cm I could walk too but after 3, no way.
The funny thing is. Sometimes (really rarely) after a long painfull walk, the pain goes away immediately and I feel completely good. Then after some time it comes back again. Esspecially when I wake up in the morning it becomes almost unbearable to walk.
