Ankle keyhole surgery or arthroscopy is the process of inserting a small telescope and instruments through minuscule incisions in the ankle joint, so your consultant can examine and treat it. Images of the inside of the joint are displayed on a monitor in the operating theatre. After your surgery, your ankle will be bandaged, and these bandages remain on for two weeks. You will be shown how to walk using crutches and will be given a special sandal to aid your recovery. Most patients are able to go home on the same day as their operation. You should try to rest your foot, keeping as much weight off it as possible, and keeping it raised above the level of your heart whenever you can, especially in the first week after your operation. Once this week has passed, your pain levels should have reduced greatly, and you can start walking short distances, for example to a car. Depending on your job, you may be able to return to work during the second week, however, if it involves heavy manual labor you will need to wait a month after your surgery before you can resume work.
