i had had a bunion removed from my left foot 18 months ago and i am still in a lot of pain with my toe. The surgeon only sliced a certain amount off the toe joint & didn't straighten my big toe. i have tried everything pain medication ibruprofen gel i have also been to physio and had inserts placed in my shoe but unfortunately nothing has worked. My question is should I go back to my Dr ?

    if you had a bad haircut would you complain or change hairdresser?

    If he's a good doctor he will try to sort it, if he's bad you find a new one but give doc a chance he's not a mind reader. go back say this is not right!
