Recent Cheilectomy Procedure

Today, I just got my stitches out from a recent cheilectomy that I four weeks ago. I have had very little pain from the procedure, but I have not done any intensive mobilization exercises for the toe, yet. Tomorrow, is my first day of physical therapy. My question is how long does it generally take to regain full motion? I am in physical therapy for the next 5 weeks. I have no problems doing exercise and I was going to the gym in my post-op sandal, but I am a dancer and I need to be able to dance soon.

    Between your surgeon and physical therapist, they can outline a course of action and give you goals to meet.
