Triple arthrodesis (after fusion of bones) is a painless procedure. Kindly discuss with your surgeon who will operate.

If ankle. Is the source of pain and is having arthritis, then fusion is not a bad idea. To decide on joints to be arthrosed, one would like to see xrays.
Health Tips
Joints that have arthritis and are involved will determine the type of fusion.

Her pain are probably due to overuse of her weak polio limb. Ask her to rest for few days and then begin with 50-60% of her daily activities. Based on that you can take a further call about surgery.
