Pin Removal after Hammer toe surgery?!


Question:

Pin Removal after Hammer toe surgery?

Has anyone had this done?
I am having the pin removed in 1 week.
I am so afraid it will hurt.

Please Help.


Answers:

Had it done twice - it's a quick "ouch". Not near as bad as that first day was when it was put in!

Take a dose of ibuprofen or Aleve about an hour before your appointment - that will help too.

And...congratulations - you'll be back a real shoe soon!
