Surgery Success For Sam
By Aston
December 6 2005
Ipswich Town striker Sam Parkin should be out of plaster in the next couple of weeks and back in action before the end of the season.
Parkin injured his ankle in last months game against Reading and underwent surgery recently to screw the joint back together and that surgery has been a success.
Sam: “The ankle is healing well and things are progressing.
“I had x-rays taken and there are no problems with the way the operation went. I've had a new plaster cast fitted around the ankle and that will stay on for two weeks.
“After that it will be the 'big boot' which keeps the ankle stabilised but will allow me to get around more.
“I should be able to put weight down on the foot before Christmas and begin my rehabilitation from there.
“I'm already missing not playing and will be at Portman Road on Saturday to watch the lads play QPR, which would have been a special game for me because they are the club I followed as a boy.”
