Started physical therapy end Sept.-Oct30 nothing but constant pain. I transition from the boot to tennis shoes but still need crutches just to walk. I wear compression socks to help control swelling. i

recently had a cat scan which shows my fusion took place and a non union must have happen with my bunion removal. i'm now scheduled with another surgery to take hardware out along with a bone graph.
