Recovery - A Brief Break From Blogging

7/9/2020

Despite previous reservations, I decided to undergo a surgical procedure for my hallux rigidus problem, which I briefly described here.  After numerous consultations with doctors, I came to the conclusion that surgery was the best option in my case.

I underwent the same day procedure yesterday morning. It was a walk-in and then hobble out sort of deal, and I and am now at home, my swollen, bandaged right foot elevated on a stack of pillows. I doing quite well all things considered; however, the doctor has instructed me to do as little and rest as much as possible over the next few days.

In light of this, I will be taking a brief break from blogging, probably for the remainder of this week (unless I become extremely restless from all the recovering). I hope to be back by the weekend at the latest. 

Until then, all the best. 

Note added: Special thanks to Bruce Charlton and stef for the information they shared with me regarding this condition.
