I had MN surgery Sept. 12th. I am still wearing my "shoe" and am not allowed to be on my feet longer than ten minutes at a time. I am also not allowed to put any weight on the ball of my foot. I don't and never did have alot of pain or swelling. I get my stitches out Thurs. and am kinda anxious to find out if I can return to work. How in the world did you go back so soon after surgery? Did the Dr. release you? No wonder you still have pain. Take a week off now, take care of your foot! Hopefully you haven't harmed it by putting weight on it so soon after surgery. I have been sitting on my butt for 2 weeks now. And hopefully mine is healing like it should. Now watch....I will be the one with complications!! Good luck to you.
