What can I expect from foot surgery?!
Question: What can I expect from foot surgery!?
I've developed a large painful bunion and bunionette on my left foot and I'm thinking it may need surgery!. How long can I expect to be out of commission!? How long before I can walk on it!? How bad does it hurt!? I can barely fit my foot into a shoe right now, but my toes are fairly straight!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
I have been to a specialist regarding a bunion I have on my left foot ( I inherited it from my dad!.!.!.thanks dad)!. I have tried strapping which did not help and surgery is my next option!. I have been told that you are not able to bear weight on the foot for 6-8 weeks (crutches only) you cannot carry your kids or anything heavy for an extended period of time after that (big bummer for me) and that it takes a year or longer for the foot to heal completely!. It is not a one and done type of thing!. I have been thinking about looking into other treatments through an orthopedic surgeon since I now have arthritis and limited range of motion in my big toe!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
