severed tendon in foot

I was in a car crash and severed the tendon that allows me to lift my foot. I have had surgery to repair it and have been in a cast for two months. The current cast comes off next week. What can I expect with respect to more casting and physical theropy.
Thanks in advance.Kristi

    The leg will be much weaker than the other. Physical therapy will be necessary to help rebuild strength. Your doctor is the best source of what you can expect.
