    Your extension should get better daily by engaging in stretching exercises and walking. The initial 3 months are crucial once you cease lengthening. I underwent tibia LL and am now in the consolidation phase. I have witnessed individuals with significant ballerina feet returning to normal within a few weeks. Without receiving physiotherapy and performing appropriate stretching routines, the progress will not be as effective.

    Regarding your precise inquiry, I believe attaining complete dorsiflexion during consolidation may not be feasible; however, you may approach it when you can walk correctly and bear your full weight on your ankles all day long.
