Successful surgery is the key term!
Great news!
Great news!
Hopefully this does the trick, cant see him back any time soon however.
That is an incredible stat
Highly variable recovery for peroneal nerve decompression/release surgery - ranging from immediate to months.
What is the recovery time for a nerve release?
Most nerve releases are performed as an outpatient procedure and do not require an overnight stay in the hospital. Many nerve releases are performed in conjunction with more complicated procedures that may require additional time in the hospital. If performed alone without any other additional procedures, there are no weight bearing restrictions after a nerve release, and most patients are encouraged to start walking immediately after surgery. Early mobilization is important to reduce swelling and prevent joint contractures. The skin incision will heal in 1-2 weeks. Depending on how severe the underlying nerve damage was prior to surgery, the nerve symptoms may be alleviated immediately after surgery, or it may take months for the nerve to fully recover

Let's hope so, but it makes me laugh whenever a player goes under the knife and their club immediately comes out and says the surgery was successful - even when they've done an ACL and are going to miss a year.
I'm just going to assume that Butters is in the 'relieved immediately' camp and that he will be back in a Portnight.

I guess it just means there were no complications, or the procedure went as planned/expected.
Best case scenario is the nerve problem is now completely resolved, and, once the surgery wound heals, it's just a matter of finishing his ankle rehab and getting match fitness back?

Hopefully it means it has been remedied and won’t now recur.
Cost - longer recovery.

We really haven’t had much luck with injuries to the 3 draft guns. All have had a serious injury.
