Study Summary

This clinical trial aims to determine the effects of a 6-day low-dose methylprednisolone course on pain, nausea, and total opioid consumption in patients undergoing foot and ankle surgeries. The secondary objective of the study is to determine and monitor the effects of the course on complications following surgery and patient-reported outcomes

Primary Outcome

The subjects will report nausea along the visual analog scale (VAS scale), which they will be educated on before surgery. A VAS for nausea is a straight line with one end labeled "no nausea" and the other end labeled "worst nausea imaginable". The patient marks a point on the line to indicate their nausea level. The distance from the "no nausea" end of the line is used to score the nausea intensity
