Bunions both feet

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi to those thinking of having both feet done go for it

I was told I was mad having them both done together and that it was one of the worst and painful experience I would ever have

I'm pleased to say that I had my op left foot scarf and akin procedure and right foot scarf procedure on 9th February at 2pm was was up and walking to toilet with Velcro boots on at 5 pm home same day with feet in plaster and nice pair of Velcro boots

pleased to say that no real pain after 3 days stopped taking pain killers.

my advice is to buy a foot elevated pillow had my feet elevated for first two weeks for most of time this I am told is why I have experienced no pain still use this when resting 

had slight burning on feet but told that is normal part of healing process.

I've only walked on my heels but got about fine in boots

Saw surgeon 10 days after op who was happy with X-rays replastered by feet with fibre glass and told to return in 3 weeks time 13th march with pair of open toe shoes 🙄🙄 so fingers crossed will be out of plaster

will update after return on 13th
