I had Big Toe Replacement Op 10 weeks ago, I am still in pain and also have Tendonitis. I go to physio and can bend my toe, but the pain is no better than before the op. Hoping its because its still early days, love to hear from anyone that's in the same situation

      HI Yes I had both joints replaced but the Moje is ceramic not metal and plastic, I had no pain at all and got full mobility back very quickly  The operations were done in 2008 and 2009.  I think that you need to talk to your surgeon.
