Question about surgery

Speeg
I recently have had a screw put into my foot to repair a torn ligament due to playing football. I was curious, if the screw were to be jarred loose or something in my foot, I would be able to feel it right? Would it be a very intense pain that is continuous?

That isn't what I am asking; I want to know if the screw can be knocked loose by movement/contact and if so, how intense would the pain be?

Hello Speeg,

Do not worry. If the technique is right, the results are bound to be great.If it pains then take ibuprofen.
