HI, I have had my achilles corrected and replaced with tendons from my big toe and the next toe. However since then it has caused my toes to overlap each other. To make matters worse i have had to have my little toe be to the next to which is now crooked. because of this it causes my foot to bend inward and i am having balance issues. I FALL A LOT! Also my ankle it self is fused. I do have a dr appointment at the end of the month but i am curious what i am getting into.

    i know nothing about this but expect your toes will strengthen up. But sounds as though you may need spacers temporarily to stop overlapping. falling prob just temp imbalance after all that surgery. BUT are you not having physio? Would get some or else get follow up appt brought forward. perhaps ring the consultants secretary and explain n or send an email. But, whatever, do it quickly because of inconvenience of christmas coming up!Good luck!
