I had scarf and akin osteotomies on 10 May 08. The surgeon put in 3 screws, which keep the bones in place while they heal so I don't need a cast. Stitches come out on the 27th of May.

  • hey im thinking of getting bunion surgery too. How bad is the pain? Im not one who can bear a lot of pain. and do u have to do the surgery one foot at a time?

  • My feet were getting worse and starting to hurt more, so it made sense to get the op and get it sorted out! There are different kinds of bunion surgeries, so your podiatrist might be able to tell you what you could expect. My surgery was pain-free. It did really hurt a lot the first few days, but if I could do it, anyone can. I need both feet done, but I'm glad had one at a time because it was hard enough getting around with one good foot!

  • Hope you heal well. Looks painful. Can't wait to see you this summer at the Bluegrass shop.

  • Thanks Diana :^) It was pretty painful the first week but getting better all the time. See you soon!

see all
