The results of the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and Present Pain Intensity (PPI) for 3-Day Postoperative Pain and 6-Week Postoperative Pain: VAS for 3-Day Postoperative Pain (A), PPI for 3-Day Postoperative Pain (B), VAS for 6-Week Postoperative Pain, and D) PPI for 6-Week Postoperative Pain (C). Patients were distributed bi-modally with respect to pain early following foot and ankle surgery with the majority experiencing inadequate pain control (VAS 3-Day Postoperative Pain greater than or equal to 5) However, most patients suffered very little pain 6 weeks after the operation, even less than they suffered before the operation.
