I am suppose to have surgery on Thursday to remove lipomas on both ankles. I was told I have to go to a surgical hospital to have removed with conscious sedation and that I will have to be completely off my feet for 4-5 days, with feet elevated above my heart, wearing the boots on both feet and icing every 30 minutes, then really off my feet for 3 full weeks other than to just get up and walk around a bit. no shopping, cooking, cleaning anything where i'll be on my feet long. Does that sound right?
