This could be the precipitating factor for an infection such as a discitis or even a vertebral osteomyelitis, and it would not be unusual that the correct diagnosis isn't made until a few months later, especially if she didn't have classic symptoms of an infection.
And then again, it still might be unrelated.....

what you said! I agree proudly pointing to my google doc exam passing grade
she could have gotten the infection from the time in the boot, and not the operation for sure. . there are no facts to prove one way or the other, but m point was and still is, infection probabilities increase with surgeries, so make sure that you really need the surgery. ..
bacterias and viruses are the apex predators, so be careful what you wish for. .
