What Causes Tendon Pain With Swelling After Ankle Surgery?

I had ankle surgery because my tendon was shredded. The dr said it was the worse tendon he d ever seen. I cannot get past the intense pain after 3 months now. He did an xray and said that I had a lot of darkening of the bones which he thought was osteoporosis. Does that sound right to you? Is it common to have so much pain 3 months after surgery? I also have a lot of swelling.

I really appreciate your concern, yes such pathology could cause great pain, proper management could reduce this, you need to go for second orthopedic opinion and may need MRI study for this, hope this information helps, take care.
