Bunion and fusion surgery on big toe

[Bratty]

I had a bunion removed and fusion on my left foot 4 mth’s ago I still can’t get a shoe on that foot and it’s tight when I do put it on and it hurts under my big toe when I walk why

Can you contact the surgeon/consultant who did your op’s as they would be able to look at your foot to check all is well 😊

Have you had any physio.....I had both bunions operated on & I was able to walk in loose trainers ( and drive when I had the right foot operated on) after three months.

Do get in touch with your surgeon & get some advice.

I had the same operation, it took me a good 12 months to get a comfortable shoe on. Worth it in the end. Good luck with it all.

I had my foot straightened it took about 3 months to wear shoes which were soft but about 6 months before normal shoes. So worth it though.
