NO Alcoholic beverages while on pain medications. Keep pain medication out of the reach of children.
These instructions have been designed to minimize your inconvenience and make you as comfortable as possible. Please READ AND FOLLOW all of these recommendations.

Bathroom privileges ONLY on the day of surgery (Stay off the foot).
Elevate the foot at all times the day of the surgery (1-2 pillows).
A small amount of staining on the bandages is nothing to be alarmed about; a large amount should be brought to the doctor’s attention.
If there is swelling and the bandage feels tight, re-wrap the outside (colored) layer only.
Never remove the sterile (white) bandage.
Apply an ice pack (provided) to the back of the calf or to the top of the ankle as this will cool down the blood supply to the foot and help minimize swelling.
At night, place a pillow under the mattress (at the foot of the bed).
It is very important to keep the bandage CLEAN and DRY.
If you get the bandage wet, call the office immediately.
Please wear the post-op surgical shoe at all times while walking until you are directed by Dr. Aronson to discontinue its use.
If you have any questions or problems, please do not hesitate in calling 24 hours per day. I want you to be comfortable.
