I had surgery for a huge bone spur digging into my Achilles tendon

I've been in a boot-splint for 6 weeks. I noticed I walk like Tim Conway as the 90yr old man in the Carol Burnett show. Then looking at videos on U-tube I see PD patients have the same slow, shuffling gait. I'm worried the boot is not the reason for the shuffling gait but PD is. Supposed to get out of the boot next week. I wonder what I can do if I'm no better once the boot is history?

According to my understanding, as I read & watch information from vitamin K2 from here and you tube etc. K2 helps draw calcium from soft tissues & joints to the right place: bone & teeth. This might help in bone spurs?

kaypeeoh,

Did your doctor say that the tendon is damaged from abrasion of the bone spur or is there some other damage?
