After an ankle fusion, the joint is permanently immobilized, which can alleviate pain and improve stability. Patients typically undergo a rehabilitation program to regain strength and mobility in the surrounding muscles and joints. Full recovery may take several months, during which weight-bearing activities are gradually reintroduced. While the fused joint can enhance overall function, patients may experience reduced range of motion in the fused ankle.
