I was looking at a site to explain bunion surgery before I signed on tonight and low and behold F$mandolin started a thread about big toe pain.
So thought I'd start one to ask if anyone has had bunion surgery and if you have, how was your recovery, what were your results and would you do it again?
I have one and am thinking about this surgery. Doesn't look like a great recovery time frame and results might not be what I would like.
The only real pain I have is when the bunion has come under pressure and friction with a shoe. But this bunion is getting worse. I'd call it intermediate. I can now feel it even when I have my tennis shoes on.
I think it is genetic as my mom had one and my daughter has a slight one. I have lived with it for years when it was slight to moderate but now...it is affecting my life in more ways including some associated foot pain elsewhere.
