[QUOTE="Shari, post: 392576, member: 1848"] and my level for tolerance may just be exceeded, but, i just hurt the splint on my ankle constantly feels too tight. if i hold me leg in the air (the way they formed this one) it is ok, but if i rest it on raied pillows, it feels like the edges of the plint board cut into the sides of my ankle. constantly. they gave me the ok to loosen it, so tonight i did. and while tha ace bandages were off, it felt fine. it was iffy, but i could get me leg inside the splint boards in one position that was not painful. just a slight **** one way or the other tho, and i had the cutting feeling again. but with the bandages back on, even tho they are loose, its back to the constant cutting into my leg feeling. and i;ve had it with it tonight. the first splint - done while i was in surgery, was not nearly like this. if i go in the morning and ask them to resplint this, will it help? or is this just a pain that goes with the territory? (my ankle was nearly severed. it is pinned and plated, all internal now. it is wrapped in 2 layers of thick ctton batting, with a fiberglass backing board on the back of my leg, held with another layer of gauze and an ace bandage. the fiberglass board was fitted by a single doctor holding it to my leg while forming it as it cured, while holding my leg in the air.)
