    Actually you might feel a little better after the surgery. Your body knows the bones aren’t in their right places, everything that connects them with the rest of you is stretched wrong and screaming with every movement. Even though the surgery will cut some things, it will realign and stabilize things as well so they can start to calm down.

      I’m hoping that the surgery will fix the pain a bit. I broke off the bone in the back of my ankle and I feel it moving around with each movement. It SUCKS.
