Head on crash in my corvette vs. a beater driven by a heroine addict! Happened on June 15th have been through surgery, plates and screws in place along with pins that have now been removed. Started full weight bearing four days ago in an air cast I know I have a long recovery time but I’m thankful to be alive!
Was giving a friend a piggy back ride after going to the movies. Hoisted her up and took a step and my Birkenstock sandals pulled my foot weird and led to a horrible lisfranc fracture. One of the doctors told me I’d never dance again which was wild and scary. I was told it was a severe case and I had two surgeries and multiple pins put in and was allowed to walk for 3 months. I got really good at walking with a peg leg. But now I’m back trying to work out again and struggling because I wasn’t provided with how to care for this injury after the fact. Thank you for helping!
Utmost compliments to you! There’s NO OTHER doctor who goes all the way, explaining anatomy, physiology, surgery, physical therapy, etc., and tell how long it’s REALLY GOING TO TAKE for total healing or frankly, sometimes it’s better to accept that it’s as good as it gets! Other doctors don’t really seem to like telling the truth! You give practical, sincere demonstrations helpful physical therapy that encourages people to DO this at home and how important it is for healing. I’m happy with my future surgeon, but I’m a complex case and the one thing I know to STRESS to all future surgery patients is LOSE WEIGHT BEFORE SURGERY! If at all possible! I appreciate your channel so much! Love the the education and presentation! Please, don’t ever stop! You’re a GEM!👍😀🙏❤️
Im less than 2 months in my recovery after surgery. Some days are better than others but it is a painful process not just physically but emotionally as well. This was a super helpful video on what to expect while on this recovery journey.
I feel you fam, I’m a year since the injury and 3 months post my last surgery. Mentally it took a toll big time. Sitting at home doing nothing. Forces you to face your demons. How’s your pain now? I still get irritation and slight pain and sometimes shooting pains. Driving is what makes it worse. Sigh 😪
I am 12 weeks post-op from an emergent surgery for a fractured ankle, fractured metatarsal, fractured lisfranc joint and torn ligament. All from a fall. I have 11 screws and a plate in my ankle, 4 screws in my mid foot and a severed ligament was repaired with a cadaver ligament. I was in a cast for 2 weeks only, due to extreme swelling and pressure. I then moved into a boot and was zero weight bearing for 10 weeks. In the past 2 weeks I have been increasing the weight bearing. I just moved to a new ankle and foot brace a few days ago, that helps with pain control and stability. I also have a carbon fiber plate in my tennis shoe. I have been in physical therapy for 8 weeks already. I have had some "bumps" in the road with recovery, but trying my best to get through this healing process. This has been the hardest thing in my life, as far a recovery. I do appreciate the information that you provide. I have watched several of your videos on the subject. I really appreciate it!
thank you! I am in a similar situation, post-ops almost 12 weeks and can start walking on myself without crutches is already a huge improvement to me. seeing the physio now but still can't get too much dorsiflexion. how are you feeling now after a year? are you getting back to tennis already? I am so missing tennis, skiing and MTB etc
@@francobondino7816 I am feeling great, yeah, walk, tennis, skiing, mtb all 99% normal. still get occasionally sore during raining days, but happy with the recovery. ( I had my metals removed which significant improved my flex, but leave a bit bump which is almost gone now)
@@francobondino7816 feel great. all 99% normal, tennis, skiing, mtb. I have had my metals removed which greatly improve my flex, but leave a small bump which slowly disppearing now.

I'm 12 weeks into a Lisfranc injury. Thanks for this video. This was more helpful than the OT. I started going to the pool 4 weeks ago, but had to stop (I'm a teacher) because I'm back at work. We don't have subs right now, and the doctor wanted me to start PT 2 weeks ago. I'm just going to do it at home with these exercises. I'll get some inserts also, I went to 3 doctors and none of them recommend the inserts, and I can see how it would help. I appreciate you using the foot model.
Hi teacher here too w foot injury (dr never told me which bone I had broken but after watchin this guy I think its 5th metatarsal) but for 2 wks I was teaching thinkin it was just sprained ankle 😂 6 wks later feelin better!
Math teacher here too. 1 week into injury. I get to have an MRI this week. I've been icing and staying off as much as possible. The boot is so heavy so I have been using my Hoka sandals and a cane at home. At school the boot and trying my best at keeping my foot elevated.
Thank you for your videos, thay have been very helpful for me. I have a Lisfranc injury, broken ligament with also 2 broken bones. Unfortunately, I assumed it was just a sprain, so I didn't see the ortho until week 5. It had healed so much on its own by then so he postponed surgery for now and we are just going to leave it and see how healing resumes. Might need surgery later. The most pain is in that joint in my big toe. Arthritis is there but it never hurt until AFTER I got the Lisfranc. I'm at 8 weeks now and it continues to improve slowly... but definitely still has pain and while I can walk, it's not the best. Wearing something to support the foot helps (compression sock), and arch support. Wish me luck.....
I loved my super expensive MBT sandals and walking tennis shoe! HOWEVER, I’m EXTREMELY DISSATISFIED with the quality!! I had mine in Storrage for a couple of years. When I wore them, the material between the sole and street surface DISINTEGRATED! As I walked! I’m feeling very ripped off! It also happened to a pair of expensive European hiking boots! What is going on in this industry! Not like a pair of 30 yr old Irish Setters! PLANNED Obsolescence!!😞🤬😤😡
Not about these specifically but there is 1 factory in southeast asia that makes 6 major shoes ranging from low cost $20 brands to the "highest" quality shoes that can cost almost $1000! All about great marketing
I had lisfranc surgery(+ bunion fusion & pin/screws for a stress fracture mid foot)22 days ago. I had a SEVERE bunion, which was the impetus for an MRI, which revealed the lisfranc to have healed from a tear in the past(I believe about 3 years ago, I “sprained” my foot. But it “heeled” quickly, so🤷♂️), & my mid foot had moved 2mm to the right?(idk the exact details of that, but I’m sure you do)& my Dr. said any more movement could result in eventual collapse of my foot. Hence, the surger(ies). I feel GREAT, I’ve had very little pain, even immediately after the surgery, & frankly I’m beyond ready to start walking. Is this normal to feel so good so soon after this surgery? Thanx!
I fell off an electric scooter. Lisfranc injury to right foot. I had a fusion to medial cuneiform shattered at each joint (1&2 metatarsal and navicular). and ligament detached. Im in a aircast boot. I’m 4.5 weeks post op. I’m now heel weight bearing but not easy to do and not very many videos online.
Had a military parachute landing fall 1997. Doctor said that 1 through 4th metatarsal at joint. Bones was cream of wheat in CT scan. He also mentioned that instead of snapping Plantar fascia which usually happens that mine ripped my metartsals apart. Still paying for that.
I walked for over 3 weeks with this fracture. Many plates, screws, and pins the day after going to my orthopedic doctor I was in an OR having my foot fixed. It looked like my big through 3rd toe with the top arch on my right foot it looked like a slab of pork ribs had been pulled apart. One of the easiest ways to self diagnose on this break is your sole stays bruised. Never moves through the stages a bruise goes through. And it’s not 6 months to recover, it took my break 10+ months to recover enough for me to have minimal pain.
My injury is in the middle of my foot pinky toe side. It doesnt hurt at all unless I put weight on it sideways. However, its been over a month and hasnt fully healed! It prevents me from skateboarding which is my passion. Ive been icing it a bit which seems to help a little. Feels odd going to a doctor when I have 0 pain from day to day activities.
@@fit.40 Hey I started skating this week! It still has some healing left but its the first time I have felt confident in a full recovery. I would say give it time I think the foot is a complicated area for an injury.

I had a lusfranc injury 03/2018 and live with pain. It is a nightmare. No sports, no longer walking, no quality of life. I got the right diagnosis almost a year after the injury, before that the doctors forced me to do „recovery exerxises“ with a lot of pain 2 months after the injury - I was not able to walk without pain and to do the exercises without pain. They ignored this all and I wanted to die and had to stop it all at this point. I have never fully recover. I have a lot of pain while working (standing, walking…). It is a hell for me.
I have pain exactly in that area. It has been hurting for a year. I have had X-ray and MRI. It says I have arthritis in cuneiform area. I’ve had injections in my foot for my foot. It hasn’t helped. I’m okay with rest. By the end of the day I’m in terrible pain. My pain is exactly right where the pain is for a lis franc injury
What a shock. After my recent foot fracture healed, I discover I have a torn ankle ligament that was missed on the initial fracture diagnosis. This is why my foot weakness was not improving.
I had a severe Lisfranc injury almost a year ago. Went though surgery but didn’t fusión any of my bones. One year later I still can’t run 😢 but (and maybe I’m awefully wrong) I do try to walk barefoot as much as I can. Time will tell if I’m right or not but I feel like I really want to get my ankle and midfoot to bend and regain as much movement and flexibility as possible. It even feels better to walk barefoot (yes, there is pain, but in a weird way to explain it does feel right) than walking with hoka shoes. Hope to everyone joining the tough Lisfranc club!
Oh my word it’s like you’ve read my mail! I just had my MRI today, we’ll see next week at my follow up appointment. I remember as I was walking wearing my Hoka 1-1 shoes I went on an uneven surface expectantly twisting my foot in a severe supination ( I was wearing a hard orthotic a podiatrist made for me several years ago which did cause my foot to supinate. I took them out of my shoes after that and threw away the shoes as they were getting old. I bought some Brooks wearing one on my left foot without the orthotic and a boot on my right foot now. Doctor said to stay off my feet as much as possible at this point. My pain has been 8 out of 10 Wearing a boot now making me more comfortable
I had back surgery thought I felt good legs went out from under me thought I had a bad sprain but it didnt get better. I’ll be having surgery April 5. Also getting bunion and hammer toes fixed
This is very good you’re very informative compared to other RUclipsrs. It’s great that I now have a lifelong issue because I chose to wear 💩 shoes with soles that bend like and fold like paper.

I tripped and my foot bent under itself and I fell onto it, I’m not a light person either! I heard a snap and had an instant rush of adrenaline. Managed to get to a&e and had a confirmed fractured cuneiform and 5th metatarsal. This was around 8 months ago and it’s still excruciating. Worse with long walks. I’ve just had an MRI scan and waiting for results. Hopefully physio can sort me out
Hi! Can I start doing these rehab exercises 2 mos after a sprain? It still swells from time to time when it’s not elevated. I got an X-Ray done but the doctor said it’s just a normal sprain. But it’s been too long :(
I broke my metatarsal and chronically sprained my Liz frank and slightly tore it ... after my fracture healed my podiatrist didn't see me again and told me, I'd be fine, but I'm limping around and struggling to put weight onto the front of my toes. Do you suggest I go see A rehabilitation expert
QUESTION: i got my deep peroneal injured while playing football. Its been like 3 weeks already i can walk normally but i still cant go for play or run and cant take a inside feet turn or grip during running it hurts again like before also when i kick the ball with less effort. Even i did my foot x-ray too and there is no any crack in my bone . doctor provide me a painkiller and the gel to massage it and keep warm but its not working yet. Hope you understand my problem .i want to recover it soon and go for play in the field .Thank you🌻
So I have the fracture but still have full range of motion and can put weight on it. I need to get an MRI but what is it looking like for surgery if I can still stuff like that. The doctor has me in a boot and on crutches just in case
I actually don't remember getting hurt when I woke up from bed in the morning and I just stepped out it hurted like was wondering what just happened to my foot 😭 the way you explained I think it's just a sprain if it doesn't get cure on its own I might have to consult a docter😢 I don't want surgery 😭 hope it's just a sprain
Exactly same condition, removed my shoes off, slept, when woke up, saw it swelled up for no reason, thought of insect bite ignored and used band aid(though intense pain) 4days later more intense pain, went to doctor realising possible stress fracture..
What if it comes and goes. Bad pain for a few days, then it goes away, but has come back trice and I have a day that I cannot walk without pain on one foot in this area
i can tiptoe but cannot bend it downwards, (from playing tournament ultimate frisbee) wore cleats, folded my foot downwards and heard cracks, went to the hospital and they put my foot on cast for 1 week, now just healing :( it's been 12 days after taking off the cast, still cant bend my foot downwards
Thanks for the great response MrAyrit! If possible, we would appreciate a quick & easy rating from you, and a good rating makes a BIG difference for us! g.page/r/CaxJ9b-O6o27EAg/review Thanks again for watching!
I was diagnosed lisfranc injury in May 2019 my doctor recommend me to undergo surgery but unfortunately i didnt because of financial Problem is there any chance for me to undergo surgery after 2 years of suffering from pain because of this injury?
Hello, I have a lisfranc sprain, and a bruised foot, and when I stand for more than 1-2 minutes the foot I injured is noticeably more red/purple and veinier than my uninjured foot. Elevation immediately brings it back to normal. Is this just part of healthy healing inflammation? Can I wear a compression sock? It gets so swollen that it feels like pins & needles on my big toe & I can feel the veins on the top of my foot arch. Hurts to fit into shoes with the injured foot, extremely squished. It’s been 6 weeks and I haven’t been able to stay off of it, because of my job. Now I’ve been fired & need to recover so I can work! Please help! Thanks in advance & thanks for your insight!
Amazon driver. Sprain with partial c1 m2 tear. 6 weeks in. Very tight and want the stiffness to go away. Doing well at pt but i need to get back to work as soon as possible😢😢😢😢
I know what you mean. Five weeks after my cast removal, my foot and ankle was still very stiff that I still needed one crutch to help me walk. Physio has me doing foot/ankle flexing exercises every hour and I set a timer to remind me, and if I skip it my stiffness increases again. It will take a while to diminish.
@m.taylor I went back to work at 7 weeks. One week in. As long as I manage the top foot swelling I've been doing okay. But the rest of my body is already out of shape for work. Every day I need to focus on how I walk and not carrying too much so that I do not obstruct my vision. The at home workout and doing the other foot, leg, really does make a difference. Also invest in better shoes. The hoka wide with bondi Sr kind are I believe the only reason I've lasted a week. Lol. Good luck in your recovery
@@LovingxLyriqxNxDeSeo I keep hearing about those hoka shoes--I will need to look into them. I hope one day to resume jogging. All the best for your recovery too!
@@m.taylor they prevent front loading of the foot. Take some getting used to. I've had to order a half size bigger due to swelling during this heat wave at work
This was really very helpful in understanding this injury. I had surgery for my lisfranc injury in Jan this year with 3 screws put in to hold up the arch. After 2 months in cast, in March the cast came off. My recovery is not very good. Doing the towel pull exercise. Can you recommend more exercises to mobilize the ankle and reduce the pain in plantar area? I also have swelling around the area of surgery, more like that area is rock hard and not edematous. Thanks for this enlightening video.

After watching this video I’m not sure if I actually have a lisfranc injury. I have been suffering terribly with pain in my heel. At first I thought it was plantar fasciitis but nothing seems to help that, then I thought it was possibly something to do with my heel pad but again recommendations didn’t help. I realized that before the summer I removed my metatarsal pads from my walking shoes (I exercise 30-45 minutes in the morning and then walk 2-4 miles late afternoon). I added back the metatarsal pad just below the ball of my foot and voila, no pain. It seems to me that I was even having a slight burning feeling in my heel but now nothing. I don’t know what that part of my foot is called - it is the center of my foot just below the ball of my foot and seemingly starting on the 2nd metatarsal bone. (If that is the correct term).
If I only knew that my injury was oncoming from a year ago or more. Almost in early April, 2022, my foot became very painful. I always had a tiny pain there, and then bang. I am slowly recovering. No high interval training, which I do. But I did have an injury between my glute and hamstring a few years ago, I know now that this other injury led to my foot injury. For the past weeks I have iced my foot for 20 minutes a day using cold water mixed with epsom salts. My foot is getting better, but hard to say how much more longer to heal. I can feel tightness going from upper hamstring to my foot. I will have to get all these muscles loosened, including the calf muscle
I just sprained, or worse, my middle left foot. You mentioned Hokas. I have Hokas with inserts,* and toe separaters between my great toes and my second toes. I have a hammer toe on my second toel, left foot. Even my Hokas do not work. I have been wearing flip flops and flat heel covered slippers for months now. The hammer toe hurts so bad after walking in my Hokas, that I cannot walk. What do I do?
What if the pain is in the mid foot but on the bottom. I've had plantar fasciitis before, but this is different. Pain is isolated in the bottom and the middle. No immediate event that initiated any pain. Have recently gone back to squats and began to feel some mild foot pain in this spot. The morning after doing calf raises was when it went off the charts. Once up and on my feet for awhile it's a tolerable level of pain, but never completely gone...better in shoes than barefoot. Does this sound like Lisfranc?
Hello!! What would you recommend for a fracture in the first and third cuneiform (specially the third one took the worst part) and a fracture in the base of the fifth metatarsal? It has been a month and i am afraid when will i start rehabilitation. I move the toes with difficulty and only up and down movements of the feet, basically. I bended my feet from falling from a 3 step stair and It immediately was very swollen. I am wearing a Walker to rest. Thank you so much for your videos and your way to explain It :)
I felt from the stairs a week ago. I had XR 2 times (1 at the 2nd day since the fall, and another 1 week after). The XR doesn't show something anotmal, so doctor discard lisfranc injury. Now I can walk ok, but in the night is uncomfortable and still hurts. It's normal?
I’m at the beach and surf a lot. This makes me really sad. Can I never go barefoot now? I’m pretty sure I have some partially torn ligaments in the mid foot.
I had surgery and I’m almost done with my recovery, I just need the surgery that removes the screws. I’m so scared that I won’t be able to either use tall heels or dance. Wish me luck!!!!
@@judithtearoa828 I’ve never heard of someone that didn’t have them taken out, so idk. I heard (I’m not 100% sure so don’t quote me on this) that there is a chance for it to get infected if you still have them Tbh after I got them removed it was much easier to move my foot
This shit ain’t no joke, especially on ur injury. My foot pretty much rolled or folded in on itself . causing so much damage in my foot, toes. Pretty much everything in my foot was done, couldn’t even put weight what’s so ever. Took 8+ months even for it to heal and more including a lot of therapy.
I think I sprained my ankle but I was diagnosed with mid foot sprain, my ankle was not swollen but the lateral top of my foot but now after 6 days I try to walk and my ankle hurts… what can it be??? I’m desperate
After my lisfranc injury, even when I'm indoors I'm thinking I shouldn't walk barefoot anymore but should wear shoes that protect my feet. Even slippers do not have adequate support.
@@dvillatoro2254I wore a cast for many weeks and they said the fracture healed but I still cannot stand on my tip toes without intense pain in my mid foot where the Lisfranc fracture is/was, so I think something was missed in my diagnosis. I think my chip fracture did not fully reattach to the main bone...or it is poor alignment in the healing. I am hoping it is just caused by extreme stiffnessin the foot because I do not want to have to undergo surgery.
I@@dvillatoro2254I healed with a cast but I still have foot pain on weightbearing so something did not heal adequately/fully or my joint cartilages are damaged.

Broke my foot 6 days ago trying to run full speed with untied steel toes while I was half in the bag thought it was just badly sprained. Had to catch train next day from Niagara to Ottawa, couldn’t bare weight next day, fat foot to the max, ended up hoping around Toronto station and eating shit trying to catch connecting bus to Ottawa to get my car was on ground in front of Scotiabank centre for 45 minutes until ems came. Ended up in Toronto hospital waiting for 5 hours until doctor took X-ray and CT scan, doctor ended up saying I might have chip in foot but when I got the news did a whole number to my foot few fractures, couple ligaments fucked up. Lol 85 dollars for cad from hospital to Mississauga to uncles house fuck sakes. At least we got the manulife. First broken bone fuck me haha supposed to be getting 60 hour weeks for work now I’m stuck w 2200 month on ei, we love thattttt. Out of commission for 8 weeks at least. Who else is struggling w me?
I had lisfranc surgery 2 months ago. Just started therapy yesterday, but the exercises they gave me are for the ankle, I looked at the title of the printouts and specifically says ankle exercises. Does that make any sense? Nothing compared to the exercises in your video. What worries me is that from the beginning my journey has been a nightmare as doctor diagnosed my injury 9 months ago as a sprain ankle, which was not accurate. It took a lot of pain and lack of mobility for them to realize it was misdiagnosed. Great video!
I’m 3 and a half months into my injury never been diagnosed becuz VA is not good but after much research it is almost certain it’s this injury. My foot stays sore pain gets to about 6 most days but I’m able to jog. Still cannot tippy toe or sprint or move laterally. Should I just continue to rehab on my own or seek further treatment?

Hey doc so 6months after injury I was finally able to get a podiatrist and I should be getting surgery soon. Foot has much less pain than before but a lot of instability and weakness. Will follow up with ya after surgery
@@daveedg2473 I injured my foot 5 days ago, it is a lisfranc injury, I don't want to go through surgery (no money), could I be functional in the future if I do really take care of myself and let it heal naturally? You were able to walk right? What was the worst part before surgery? Thank you🙏🙏
Yeah it can!! That’s what I have, and my foot doctor told me I have lisfranc. It’s because someone stepped on the ligament that this video is talking about. That kind of pressure really does damage the ligament
Man this is so frustrating. I stumbled over my freaking bunny and got the lisfranc fracture as a gift. I love walking barefoot. Wdym i shouldnt bent it so much :( atleast ive been doing my exercises good ;~;
I play basketball and tore my Lisfranc I had surgery may 3rd so it been almost a month. My doctor told me at first that with these type of injuries can vary depending on the severity of the injury and he said it could take up to 6-12 months to be able to go back to playing aau games. I aha e a plastic screw acting as the ligament and there is also like a metal button it think he said or something like that and I was just wondering based on what I told you do you think I could rehab it faster somehow? I also forgot to mention I have two incisions one on the middle of my foot and one on the side.
After mine healed, I can walk barefoot indoors but with a limp and some pain, and my foot and toes are still stiff. I cannot push up into a heel raise on the single foot as it is too weak or unstable, so I am at a loss as to how to strengthen my calf muscles.
@@christophburger5280 I did not have surgery. It has been three months since my cast removal and I did physio but they can only do so much about the pain. I am waiting to have an MRI done to identify any further soft tissue injuries that may have not healed. It is also likely the joint cartilage has been permanently damaged causing some of the pain.
@@DrTomBiernacki can I do low impact exercise like yoga to increase flexibility during the healing process? I have a lis franc sprain. I wore a boot for 4 weeks (per podiatrist) - this will be my first week out of it. She recommended non weight bearing during that boot time but I had to continue working on my feet bc I don’t have benefits at my job or light duty. Im ordering the compression brace and orthotics that you recommended in the notes. I have the massage tools already on hand. Thank you for your time and videos. You’ve already helped me recover from Achilles surgery two years ago on my other leg 👍

Im less than 2 months in my recovery after surgery. Some days are better than others but it is a painful process not just physically but emotionally as well. This was a super helpful video on what to expect while on this recovery journey.
I feel you fam, I’m a year since the injury and 3 months post my last surgery. Mentally it took a toll big time. Sitting at home doing nothing. Forces you to face your demons. How’s your pain now? I still get irritation and slight pain and sometimes shooting pains. Driving is what makes it worse. Sigh 😪
Lisfranc yaralanması konusunda dünyada yapılmış en yararlı video , bizleri bu süreçte çok bilgilendirdiniz ve desteğiniz için çok teşekkürler...
I am 12 weeks post-op from an emergent surgery for a fractured ankle, fractured metatarsal, fractured lisfranc joint and torn ligament. All from a fall. I have 11 screws and a plate in my ankle, 4 screws in my mid foot and a severed ligament was repaired with a cadaver ligament. I was in a cast for 2 weeks only, due to extreme swelling and pressure. I then moved into a boot and was zero weight bearing for 10 weeks. In the past 2 weeks I have been increasing the weight bearing. I just moved to a new ankle and foot brace a few days ago, that helps with pain control and stability. I also have a carbon fiber plate in my tennis shoe. I have been in physical therapy for 8 weeks already. I have had some "bumps" in the road with recovery, but trying my best to get through this healing process. This has been the hardest thing in my life, as far a recovery.
I do appreciate the information that you provide. I have watched several of your videos on the subject. I really appreciate it!
thank you! I am in a similar situation, post-ops almost 12 weeks and can start walking on myself without crutches is already a huge improvement to me. seeing the physio now but still can't get too much dorsiflexion. how are you feeling now after a year? are you getting back to tennis already? I am so missing tennis, skiing and MTB etc
@@francobondino7816 I am feeling great, yeah, walk, tennis, skiing, mtb all 99% normal. still get occasionally sore during raining days, but happy with the recovery. ( I had my metals removed which significant improved my flex, but leave a bit bump which is almost gone now)

Thanks again for watching!
Female, 64. Fusion in 3 weeks! I've already been non-weight-bearing for 2.5 months so I'm ready for it. Thank you for the exercises!!!!
I'm 12 weeks into a Lisfranc injury. Thanks for this video. This was more helpful than the OT. I started going to the pool 4 weeks ago, but had to stop (I'm a teacher) because I'm back at work. We don't have subs right now, and the doctor wanted me to start PT 2 weeks ago. I'm just going to do it at home with these exercises. I'll get some inserts also, I went to 3 doctors and none of them recommend the inserts, and I can see how it would help. I appreciate you using the foot model.
Now U r able to walk properly
Hi teacher here too w foot injury (dr never told me which bone I had broken but after watchin this guy I think its 5th metatarsal) but for 2 wks I was teaching thinkin it was just sprained ankle 😂 6 wks later feelin better!
Math teacher here too. 1 week into injury. I get to have an MRI this week. I've been icing and staying off as much as possible. The boot is so heavy so I have been using my Hoka sandals and a cane at home. At school the boot and trying my best at keeping my foot elevated.
Thank you for your videos, thay have been very helpful for me. I have a Lisfranc injury, broken ligament with also 2 broken bones. Unfortunately, I assumed it was just a sprain, so I didn't see the ortho until week 5. It had healed so much on its own by then so he postponed surgery for now and we are just going to leave it and see how healing resumes. Might need surgery later. The most pain is in that joint in my big toe. Arthritis is there but it never hurt until AFTER I got the Lisfranc. I'm at 8 weeks now and it continues to improve slowly... but definitely still has pain and while I can walk, it's not the best. Wearing something to support the foot helps (compression sock), and arch support. Wish me luck.....
This injury is so annoying especially when you have to be on your feet for work 🙄🤦🏾♂️
real
@Lil_warner what's ur stutus right now
@@Ankit_singh15 I'd say I'm at 95% recover after 6 months just minor pain on some days when I walk nothing major
@@Lil_warnerdo you run at all? I done mine 10 days ago I’m working and the pain is tolerable, but I’m hoping to play sports
I'm recovering from that. It's been almost 10 weeks not much pain. I work in a supermarket.
I fell and fractured mine, had surgery in March 2022 and now still recovering
Same here!
MBT shoes are the best to avoid feet bending according to my experience. Japanese wood flip-flop for home usage
I loved my super expensive MBT sandals and walking tennis shoe! HOWEVER, I’m EXTREMELY DISSATISFIED with the quality!! I had mine in Storrage for a couple of years. When I wore them, the material between the sole and street surface DISINTEGRATED! As I walked! I’m feeling very ripped off! It also happened to a pair of expensive European hiking boots! What is going on in this industry! Not like a pair of 30 yr old Irish Setters! PLANNED Obsolescence!!😞🤬😤😡
We will have to check them out!
Not about these specifically but there is 1 factory in southeast asia that makes 6 major shoes ranging from low cost $20 brands to the "highest" quality shoes that can cost almost $1000! All about great marketing
I had lisfranc surgery(+ bunion fusion & pin/screws for a stress fracture mid foot)22 days ago. I had a SEVERE bunion, which was the impetus for an MRI, which revealed the lisfranc to have healed from a tear in the past(I believe about 3 years ago, I “sprained” my foot. But it “heeled” quickly, so🤷♂️), & my mid foot had moved 2mm to the right?(idk the exact details of that, but I’m sure you do)& my Dr. said any more movement could result in eventual collapse of my foot. Hence, the surger(ies). I feel GREAT, I’ve had very little pain, even immediately after the surgery, & frankly I’m beyond ready to start walking. Is this normal to feel so good so soon after this surgery? Thanx!
How are you doing I’m having same I do hair was wondering how long it’d be off can’t use knee scooter because I broke my tibia platue below my knee
I fell off an electric scooter. Lisfranc injury to right foot. I had a fusion to medial cuneiform shattered at each joint (1&2 metatarsal and navicular). and ligament detached. Im in a aircast boot. I’m 4.5 weeks post op.
I’m now heel weight bearing but not easy to do and not very many videos online.
Had a military parachute landing fall 1997. Doctor said that 1 through 4th metatarsal at joint. Bones was cream of wheat in CT scan. He also mentioned that instead of snapping Plantar fascia which usually happens that mine ripped my metartsals apart. Still paying for that.
Do you have arthritis?
Yes
I walked for over 3 weeks with this fracture. Many plates, screws, and pins the day after going to my orthopedic doctor I was in an OR having my foot fixed. It looked like my big through 3rd toe with the top arch on my right foot it looked like a slab of pork ribs had been pulled apart. One of the easiest ways to self diagnose on this break is your sole stays bruised. Never moves through the stages a bruise goes through. And it’s not 6 months to recover, it took my break 10+ months to recover enough for me to have minimal pain.
My injury is in the middle of my foot pinky toe side. It doesnt hurt at all unless I put weight on it sideways. However, its been over a month and hasnt fully healed! It prevents me from skateboarding which is my passion. Ive been icing it a bit which seems to help a little. Feels odd going to a doctor when I have 0 pain from day to day activities.
How are you feeling now? I am going through the same. I am a runner. And taking break now
@@fit.40 Hey I started skating this week! It still has some healing left but its the first time I have felt confident in a full recovery. I would say give it time I think the foot is a complicated area for an injury.
@@Yongsk8 I am also feeling better now. But being careful not to injure it again.
Have you experience having pain on that foot when you wake up in the morning?
@@renz0202 I have 0 pain in the morning and 0 pain from day to day activities, which is what makes it so frustrating.

I had a lusfranc injury 03/2018 and live with pain. It is a nightmare. No sports, no longer walking, no quality of life. I got the right diagnosis almost a year after the injury, before that the doctors forced me to do „recovery exerxises“ with a lot of pain 2 months after the injury - I was not able to walk without pain and to do the exercises without pain. They ignored this all and I wanted to die and had to stop it all at this point. I have never fully recover. I have a lot of pain while working (standing, walking…). It is a hell for me.
I have pain exactly in that area. It has been hurting for a year. I have had X-ray and MRI. It says I have arthritis in cuneiform area. I’ve had injections in my foot for my foot. It hasn’t helped. I’m okay with rest. By the end of the day I’m in terrible pain. My pain is exactly right where the pain is for a lis franc injury
What a shock. After my recent foot fracture healed, I discover I have a torn ankle ligament that was missed on the initial fracture diagnosis. This is why my foot weakness was not improving.
I had a severe Lisfranc injury almost a year ago. Went though surgery but didn’t fusión any of my bones. One year later I still can’t run 😢 but (and maybe I’m awefully wrong) I do try to walk barefoot as much as I can. Time will tell if I’m right or not but I feel like I really want to get my ankle and midfoot to bend and regain as much movement and flexibility as possible. It even feels better to walk barefoot (yes, there is pain, but in a weird way to explain it does feel right) than walking with hoka shoes.
Hope to everyone joining the tough Lisfranc club!
Oh my word it’s like you’ve read my mail! I just had my MRI today, we’ll see next week at my follow up appointment. I remember as I was walking wearing my Hoka 1-1 shoes I went on an uneven surface expectantly twisting my foot in a severe supination ( I was wearing a hard orthotic a podiatrist made for me several years ago which did cause my foot to supinate. I took them out of my shoes after that and threw away the shoes as they were getting old. I bought some Brooks
wearing one on my left foot without the orthotic and a boot on my right foot now. Doctor said to stay off my feet as much as possible at this point. My pain has been 8 out of 10
Wearing a boot now making me more comfortable
I had back surgery thought I felt good legs went out from under me thought I had a bad sprain but it didnt get better. I’ll be having surgery April 5. Also getting bunion and hammer toes fixed
This is very good you’re very informative compared to other RUclipsrs. It’s great that I now have a lifelong issue because I chose to wear 💩 shoes with soles that bend like and fold like paper.

I tripped and my foot bent under itself and I fell onto it, I’m not a light person either! I heard a snap and had an instant rush of adrenaline. Managed to get to a&e and had a confirmed fractured cuneiform and 5th metatarsal. This was around 8 months ago and it’s still excruciating. Worse with long walks. I’ve just had an MRI scan and waiting for results. Hopefully physio can sort me out
Please update. Thank you ❤️🙏
I’m only 14 and my foot hurts reallllyyy bad and I’ve been wrapping it for a week now and nothing has changed
Exactly
Hi! Can I start doing these rehab exercises 2 mos after a sprain? It still swells from time to time when it’s not elevated. I got an X-Ray done but the doctor said it’s just a normal sprain. But it’s been too long :(
How are your doing my foot seems to get better but then some days I feel like I go 5 steps back
@@Juice0713 same both feet !
Same query, what happened then?
is shock wave procedure will help with lisfranc.?
I broke my metatarsal and chronically sprained my Liz frank and slightly tore it ... after my fracture healed my podiatrist didn't see me again and told me, I'd be fine, but I'm limping around and struggling to put weight onto the front of my toes. Do you suggest I go see A rehabilitation expert
QUESTION: i got my deep peroneal injured while playing football. Its been like 3 weeks already i can walk normally but i still cant go for play or run and cant take a inside feet turn or grip during running it hurts again like before also when i kick the ball with less effort. Even i did my foot x-ray too and there is no any crack in my bone . doctor provide me a painkiller and the gel to massage it and keep warm but its not working yet. Hope you understand my problem .i want to recover it soon and go for play in the field .Thank you🌻
So I have the fracture but still have full range of motion and can put weight on it. I need to get an MRI but what is it looking like for surgery if I can still stuff like that. The doctor has me in a boot and on crutches just in case
I actually don't remember getting hurt when I woke up from bed in the morning and I just stepped out it hurted like was wondering what just happened to my foot 😭 the way you explained I think it's just a sprain if it doesn't get cure on its own I might have to consult a docter😢 I don't want surgery 😭 hope it's just a sprain
Exactly same condition, removed my shoes off, slept, when woke up, saw it swelled up for no reason, thought of insect bite ignored and used band aid(though intense pain) 4days later more intense pain, went to doctor realising possible stress fracture..
My first metatarsal and first cuneiform are fused. As a result, I’ve lost the full range of motion in toe joint
What if it comes and goes. Bad pain for a few days, then it goes away, but has come back trice and I have a day that I cannot walk without pain on one foot in this area
i can tiptoe but cannot bend it downwards, (from playing tournament ultimate frisbee) wore cleats, folded my foot downwards and heard cracks, went to the hospital and they put my foot on cast for 1 week, now just healing :( it's been 12 days after taking off the cast, still cant bend my foot downwards
Very useful video, although i'm not sure the rolling of the foot 'breaks up the scar tissue'
Very helpful. Thank you.

I have been 4 month after injury of lisfrance and 3 month after plaster but still having pain while coming down from stair and walking.
I'm the same, not managing coming downstairs. 23:00
I was diagnosed lisfranc injury in May 2019 my doctor recommend me to undergo surgery but unfortunately i didnt because of financial Problem is there any chance for me to undergo surgery after 2 years of suffering from pain because of this injury?
Did you end up having to get surgery?
Hello, I have a lisfranc sprain, and a bruised foot, and when I stand for more than 1-2 minutes the foot I injured is noticeably more red/purple and veinier than my uninjured foot. Elevation immediately brings it back to normal. Is this just part of healthy healing inflammation? Can I wear a compression sock? It gets so swollen that it feels like pins & needles on my big toe & I can feel the veins on the top of my foot arch. Hurts to fit into shoes with the injured foot, extremely squished. It’s been 6 weeks and I haven’t been able to stay off of it, because of my job. Now I’ve been fired & need to recover so I can work! Please help! Thanks in advance & thanks for your insight!
Any updates? I have similar, with red purple foot on the floor, and normal color as soon as it's up in the air pointing at the ceiling. Did you heal?
Am sorry that describe my pain
Amazon driver. Sprain with partial c1 m2 tear. 6 weeks in. Very tight and want the stiffness to go away. Doing well at pt but i need to get back to work as soon as possible😢😢😢😢
I know what you mean. Five weeks after my cast removal, my foot and ankle was still very stiff that I still needed one crutch to help me walk. Physio has me doing foot/ankle flexing exercises every hour and I set a timer to remind me, and if I skip it my stiffness increases again. It will take a while to diminish.
@m.taylor I went back to work at 7 weeks. One week in. As long as I manage the top foot swelling I've been doing okay. But the rest of my body is already out of shape for work. Every day I need to focus on how I walk and not carrying too much so that I do not obstruct my vision. The at home workout and doing the other foot, leg, really does make a difference. Also invest in better shoes. The hoka wide with bondi Sr kind are I believe the only reason I've lasted a week. Lol. Good luck in your recovery
@@LovingxLyriqxNxDeSeo I keep hearing about those hoka shoes--I will need to look into them. I hope one day to resume jogging. All the best for your recovery too!
@@m.taylor they prevent front loading of the foot. Take some getting used to. I've had to order a half size bigger due to swelling during this heat wave at work
This was really very helpful in understanding this injury. I had surgery for my lisfranc injury in Jan this year with 3 screws put in to hold up the arch. After 2 months in cast, in March the cast came off. My recovery is not very good. Doing the towel pull exercise. Can you recommend more exercises to mobilize the ankle and reduce the pain in plantar area? I also have swelling around the area of surgery, more like that area is rock hard and not edematous.

Now u r able to walk properly
After watching this video I’m not sure if I actually have a lisfranc injury. I have been suffering terribly with pain in my heel. At first I thought it was plantar fasciitis but nothing seems to help that, then I thought it was possibly something to do with my heel pad but again recommendations didn’t help. I realized that before the summer I removed my metatarsal pads from my walking shoes (I exercise 30-45 minutes in the morning and then walk 2-4 miles late afternoon). I added back the metatarsal pad just below the ball of my foot and voila, no pain. It seems to me that I was even having a slight burning feeling in my heel but now nothing. I don’t know what that part of my foot is called - it is the center of my foot just below the ball of my foot and seemingly starting on the 2nd metatarsal bone. (If that is the correct term).
If I only knew that my injury was oncoming from a year ago or more. Almost in early April, 2022, my foot became very painful. I always had a tiny pain there, and then bang. I am slowly recovering. No high interval training, which I do. But I did have an injury between my glute and hamstring a few years ago, I know now that this other injury led to my foot injury. For the past weeks I have iced my foot for 20 minutes a day using cold water mixed with epsom salts. My foot is getting better, but hard to say how much more longer to heal. I can feel tightness going from upper hamstring to my foot. I will have to get all these muscles loosened, including the calf muscle
super helpful video
I just sprained, or worse, my middle left foot. You mentioned Hokas. I have Hokas with inserts,* and toe separaters between my great toes and my second toes. I have a hammer toe on my second toel, left foot. Even my Hokas do not work. I have been wearing flip flops and flat heel covered slippers for months now. The hammer toe hurts so bad after walking in my Hokas, that I cannot walk. What do I do?
What if the pain is in the mid foot but on the bottom. I've had plantar fasciitis before, but this is different. Pain is isolated in the bottom and the middle. No immediate event that initiated any pain. Have recently gone back to squats and began to feel some mild foot pain in this spot. The morning after doing calf raises was when it went off the charts. Once up and on my feet for awhile it's a tolerable level of pain, but never completely gone...better in shoes than barefoot. Does this sound like Lisfranc?
Yes it does!!
All my toes are numb and it's worry some can I get the feeling back
Always get check out by a doctor if worried, there can be many many different causes and solutions, every case differs. Good luck!
In generally most people do improve up to one year after the break. But there are definitely many factors.
Hello!! What would you recommend for a fracture in the first and third cuneiform (specially the third one took the worst part) and a fracture in the base of the fifth metatarsal? It has been a month and i am afraid when will i start rehabilitation. I move the toes with difficulty and only up and down movements of the feet, basically. I bended my feet from falling from a 3 step stair and It immediately was very swollen. I am wearing a Walker to rest. Thank you so much for your videos and your way to explain It :)
Hello i have listed injury I have a surgery now I'm resting at home it my 20th day after surgery my question is can I walk after 2 months of resting ?
Always check with your doctor, don't rely on online advice for a specific problem, especially a surgery!
I have also same injury ..whats the best exercise fastest recovery
It is helpful training for injury foot.😊
I felt from the stairs a week ago. I had XR 2 times (1 at the 2nd day since the fall, and another 1 week after). The XR doesn't show something anotmal, so doctor discard lisfranc injury. Now I can walk ok, but in the night is uncomfortable and still hurts. It's normal?
I’m at the beach and surf a lot. This makes me really sad. Can I never go barefoot now? I’m pretty sure I have some partially torn ligaments in the mid foot.
So crazy bc my calves just recently stated cramping.
HOW ABOUT CHARCOAT FOOT DO YOU HAVE ANY VIDEO ABOUT IT?
So with an injury is it best not to rehab it after just under 2 weeks?
That was a rough example, the point is don't exercise a fresh injury unless your doctor clears you. Rehab is great but not when immediately injured.
My second toes hurt and i have xray why is normal!? All bones intact and normal. And my ankle feels dislocated like ligaments...
I had surgery and I’m almost done with my recovery, I just need the surgery that removes the screws. I’m so scared that I won’t be able to either use tall heels or dance. Wish me luck!!!!
Good luck!
Our screws get removed???? I have a lisfranc injury, got it at the start of 2021 and didn't know the screws get taken out
@@judithtearoa828 I’ve never heard of someone that didn’t have them taken out, so idk. I heard (I’m not 100% sure so don’t quote me on this) that there is a chance for it to get infected if you still have them
Tbh after I got them removed it was much easier to move my foot
@@jofip1999 how is your recovery?
It’s only removed if they break or if they are causing you too much pain. Otherwise they stay in
This shit ain’t no joke, especially on ur injury. My foot pretty much rolled or folded in on itself . causing so much damage in my foot, toes. Pretty much everything in my foot was done, couldn’t even put weight what’s so ever. Took 8+ months even for it to heal and more including a lot of therapy.
I think I sprained my ankle but I was diagnosed with mid foot sprain, my ankle was not swollen but the lateral top of my foot but now after 6 days I try to walk and my ankle hurts… what can it be??? I’m desperate
After my lisfranc injury, even when I'm indoors I'm thinking I shouldn't walk barefoot anymore but should wear shoes that protect my feet. Even slippers do not have adequate support.
Did you go through surgery? Did you just naturally heal?
Thank you 🙏
@@dvillatoro2254I wore a cast for many weeks and they said the fracture healed but I still cannot stand on my tip toes without intense pain in my mid foot where the Lisfranc fracture is/was, so I think something was missed in my diagnosis. I think my chip fracture did not fully reattach to the main bone...or it is poor alignment in the healing. I am hoping it is just caused by extreme stiffnessin the foot because I do not want to have to undergo surgery.
I@@dvillatoro2254I healed with a cast but I still have foot pain on weightbearing so something did not heal adequately/fully or my joint cartilages are damaged.
@@dvillatoro2254 My fractures were minimally displaced so I only wore a cast for healing.

Broke my foot 6 days ago trying to run full speed with untied steel toes while I was half in the bag thought it was just badly sprained. Had to catch train next day from Niagara to Ottawa, couldn’t bare weight next day, fat foot to the max, ended up hoping around Toronto station and eating shit trying to catch connecting bus to Ottawa to get my car was on ground in front of Scotiabank centre for 45 minutes until ems came. Ended up in Toronto hospital waiting for 5 hours until doctor took X-ray and CT scan, doctor ended up saying I might have chip in foot but when I got the news did a whole number to my foot few fractures, couple ligaments fucked up. Lol 85 dollars for cad from hospital to Mississauga to uncles house fuck sakes. At least we got the manulife. First broken bone fuck me haha supposed to be getting 60 hour weeks for work now I’m stuck w 2200 month on ei, we love thattttt. Out of commission for 8 weeks at least. Who else is struggling w me?
Can ankle sprain cause a little pain in this area?
So just massage and towel stretch? No exercises?
I had lisfranc surgery 2 months ago. Just started therapy yesterday, but the exercises they gave me are for the ankle, I looked at the title of the printouts and specifically says ankle exercises. Does that make any sense? Nothing compared to the exercises in your video. What worries me is that from the beginning my journey has been a nightmare as doctor diagnosed my injury 9 months ago as a sprain ankle, which was not accurate. It took a lot of pain and lack of mobility for them to realize it was misdiagnosed. Great video!
i just got my walking boot it’s been 8 weeks post op and i can barely walk with the boot and it hurts so bad to even take a step any tips please?
Thank you!!!
Is there any exercise for metatarsal subluxation ...
I’m 3 and a half months into my injury never been diagnosed becuz VA is not good but after much research it is almost certain it’s this injury. My foot stays sore pain gets to about 6 most days but I’m able to jog. Still cannot tippy toe or sprint or move laterally. Should I just continue to rehab on my own or seek further treatment?

@@daveedg2473 I injured my foot 5 days ago, it is a lisfranc injury, I don't want to go through surgery (no money), could I be functional in the future if I do really take care of myself and let it heal naturally? You were able to walk right? What was the worst part before surgery?
Thank you🙏🙏
It pains alot even we cant even move our foot
I have midfoot sprain right now that I can't go to my final interview tomorrow.
Can a lisfranc happen from someone stepping on a foot
Yeah it can!! That’s what I have, and my foot doctor told me I have lisfranc. It’s because someone stepped on the ligament that this video is talking about. That kind of pressure really does damage the ligament
When we can walk after lisfrance ingury surgery
Can a Lisfranc injury be diagnosed with a CT Scan or is an MRI needed?
My Lisfranc bone fracture was identified on CT scan but an MRI is needed to see the extent of damage on the ligaments.
Man this is so frustrating. I stumbled over my freaking bunny and got the lisfranc fracture as a gift. I love walking barefoot. Wdym i shouldnt bent it so much :( atleast ive been doing my exercises good ;~;
So how to cure it?
I play basketball and tore my Lisfranc I had surgery may 3rd so it been almost a month. My doctor told me at first that with these type of injuries can vary depending on the severity of the injury and he said it could take up to 6-12 months to be able to go back to playing aau games. I aha e a plastic screw acting as the ligament and there is also like a metal button it think he said or something like that and I was just wondering based on what I told you do you think I could rehab it faster somehow? I also forgot to mention I have two incisions one on the middle of my foot and one on the side.
Any update? How is your foot now?
I tripped and fell walking up steps
Did you actually have a Lizfrank injury?
Ahhh- I see you did!
I notice that my fav toes in YT have gained weight

After mine healed, I can walk barefoot indoors but with a limp and some pain, and my foot and toes are still stiff. I cannot push up into a heel raise on the single foot as it is too weak or unstable, so I am at a loss as to how to strengthen my calf muscles.
@@m.taylor thank you for your honest response. How long are you post op? Have you already tried physio therapy?
@@christophburger5280 I did not have surgery. It has been three months since my cast removal and I did physio but they can only do so much about the pain. I am waiting to have an MRI done to identify any further soft tissue injuries that may have not healed. It is also likely the joint cartilage has been permanently damaged causing some of the pain.
Did anyone hear a loud click from there that’s what happened to me
Yes, When I tried walking right after the injury kept gearing clicking in my foot and I could feel a pop.
👏👏
Not going barefoot anymore is heartbreaking
Most people can return to going barefoot again, you just have to get that foot stabilized, healed and flexible again! Nothing is permanent in life
@@DrTomBiernacki can I do low impact exercise like yoga to increase flexibility during the healing process? I have a lis franc sprain. I wore a boot for 4 weeks (per podiatrist) - this will be my first week out of it. She recommended non weight bearing during that boot time but I had to continue working on my feet bc I don’t have benefits at my job or light duty. Im ordering the compression brace and orthotics that you recommended in the notes. I have the massage tools already on hand. Thank you for your time and videos. You’ve already helped me recover from Achilles surgery two years ago on my other leg 👍

Absolutely!
Also many many NFL running backs, Joe Mixon previously when he missed the entire season was just a lisfranc sprain
Thank you a lot
