In the caption to the post, Brian said he was done, and that after a snip to his calf muscle, he was feeling good. The guitarist explained the theory behind the snip, saying that it would release the excess tension in his Achilles' tendon and get him out of a painful heel situation.

Brian concluded by saying that he would take things easy just a bit for a while but would recover fully before "Queen" gets back on tour in January. He concluded by thanking his fans for their good wishes, adding that there was no cause for alarm.

He gave details about his bandage, and anti-clot sock, which would come off that night. The musician also added that he could walk, but that the stairs were a bit challenging.

The surgery on Brian's leg comes weeks before his band's tour of Korea and Japan in January. "Queen" would also be performing in New Zealand, Australia, and Europe in May.
