The leg and ankle may have slight swelling from arthoscopic surgery after 4 weeks. A doctor should be consulted after surgery to make sure things are healing correctly.
In United States, and depending on approach to surgery, ankle fusion surgery may cost between $30,000 and $43,000. Cost will also depend on location, hospitalization costs, and doctors fees.

Yea
Only orthopaedic surgeons do ankle surgery
Yes. You can get an ankle replacement surgery.
If the injury was mild and the surgery successful, with proper physical therapy on a health patient, the ankle should be just about as good as new. Depending on the outcome of the surgery and other factors, the ankle's newness will vary.
bruising after knee arthroscopy...hi i too had knee arthroscopy last Tuesday and my leg is bruised from the knee down to ankle. i have back up to hospital and have had blood test and ultra scan done and was told there is nothing to worry about and that is normal after the arthroscopy.
Depends how severe the sprained ankle is. If ligaments are torn and joint unstable it may require surgery
First off I'm not a doctor. I had knee surgery and at about the same time as you my leg swole up from my knee down. I was watching football with my in-laws and they noticed the size of my leg. I took my shoe off my ankle, foot, and toes were swollen. I had my doctor paged and he said to get admitted into the hospital immediately because I had a blood clot. I had an aquantince have a surgery and had a blood clot after mine. He ended up dying. Just be careful. Best of luck!
