So on the 10th of November I had a bunionectomy I had one done last year on my left foot down it went okay with not much in the way of complication at all although my foot was swollen for around eight months.so on the 10th of November I had a bunionectomy I had one done last year on my left foot and it went okay with not much in the way of complication at all although my foot was swollen for around eight months.

We are now on the 20th of April and I had my surgery done on the 10th of November but underneath my foot there is no arch on the inside and it is swollen around the area where my titanium plate is.

I find it really difficult to walk on it when I put a pair of sneakers on that piece that goes up underneath the arch really pushes into my foot and causes extreme pain I get out of a chair and I stand on it and I have to slowly put my weight on it I’m very concerned my foot is quite swollen on that side and doesn’t look good at all I’ve looked for information to see if anyone else has had this problem but I can’t find anything.I find it really difficult to walk on it when I put a pair of sneakers on that piece that goes up underneath the arch really pushes into my foot and causes extreme pain I get out of a chair and I stand on it and I have to slowly put my weight on it I’m very concerned my foot is quite swollen on that side and doesn’t look good at all I’ve looked for information to see if anyone else has had this problem but I can’t find anything.

The only thing I can say also is that unfortunately the person that was supposed to be looking after me when I had my bunionectomy done They cannot really help me as much as I thought they would be able to unlock the first time round because of some complications in their family so I was left to do a lot of things myself unfortunately I did put weight on this foot quite a lot from around the first week and I think this might be the problem I’m not really sure also I’ve got an infection it was a very stressful time for methey could not really help me as much as I thought they would be able to unlike the first time round because of some complications in their family so I was left to do a lot of things myself unfortunately I did put weight on this foot quite a lot from around the first week and I think this might be the problem I’m not really sure also I’ve got an infection it was very stressful time for me
