Surgery went fine, before and after x-rays strongly favor the "after", but the podiatrist has told me to quit walking so much, stay out of the shop, stay out of a buddy's recently burned shop and so on. No driving allowed for at least another week. Evidently, the flexing and rubbing I caused by walking TOO much create an infection, so now I get to swallow, twice a day, antibiotic pills that are almost horse sized.
