Why Is The Toe Has Turned To Orange Color After The Foot Surgery To Fix A Tendon?
I had foot surgery a few days ago to fix a tendon, I was told to keep an eye on my toes to make sure they don t turn black, but all of a sudden my toes have turned orange. I m thinking it is the antibiotic they use during surgery but my only concern is that my toes were normal color for three days after the surgery but now on the forth day they turned orange.

Hi
This seems to be due to haemolysis of blood or due to decreased circulation in the affected area.
You need to get a colour doppler of the area done.
Tablet trental and tablet complamina retard car help.
Good luck
