Mild foot pain
I had a surgery approx 1.5 months back in my right foot for peroneal bervis tendon rupture.
I had cast for approx 5 weeks and now wearing braces. I have started walking a bit but since yesterday evening sometime I have mild pain near my surgery area and around it. Is it because I have started movement or something serious.
