Hello, In may 2011 i had ankle arthroscopy to remove the OS trigonum bone that was bothering me since nearly 2 years, and as i am a professional dancer i really needed to take care of it.
Before the surgery i had 2 shots of cortisone wich each one really gave me three months of pain relief but i always finally...i decided for the arthroscopy, all went well, i could already walk 2 days later, and now its been 4 months post op and im still in lots of pain and my movement of the foot is limited, so i had an MRI and it seems like i have scarr tissue that isnt going away with fisiotherapy, so i am going to have another cortisone shot, this time to help breaking the scarr tissue.
My question is...is it possible that since the bone is away and all i have now is scar tissue ( in the joint) the cortisone shot will be a permanent solution?
thank you
