2 and a half months ago j had hammertoe surgery, all 5 toes were broken. Pinned 4, bug toe had a screw, plat and fused.

Problem is, my long toe, (toe beside my big toe), has flopped 2 weeks after the screw was taken out. It is now 4 weeks later and the toe appears to not want to straighten at all. it hurts a lot when I put on the Darko boot. (The Darko boot I've been wearing since I was out of hospital).

Has anyone had this problem. I am very concerned with this and worry I'll have to have another surgery to re-straighten the toe.

Help anyone?
